Abstract
The research sprang from the idea that all students build up opinions, concepts, naive theories, meanings and explanations about the different aspects of their school experience and this forms the bases for interpreting, receiving and organising new knowledge. On this hypothesis we elaborated a research method to put the same questions to students from every level of school and to some adults, too. More precisely, we interviewed the students at the end of:
-
- first cycle of primary school (8 years-old)
-
- second cycle of primary school (11 years-old)
-
- secondary school (14 years-old)
-
- biennium of secondary school (16 years-old)
-
- triennium of secondary school (19 years-old)
-
- some adults
