MOURA DA SILVA, Osmar Henrique  and  LABURU, Carlos Eduardo. Epistemological implications of implementing an investigative method in class in experimental secondary education. Rev. electrón. investig. educ. cienc. [online]. 2016, vol.11, n.1, pp.1-11. ISSN 1850-6666.

In science education, students' conducts about the construction of scientific knowledge, as well as the nature of science, require explicit attention of educators on methodologies and related epistemologies. It is known that the students' conceptions about the nature of science is influenced by the teachers and the classroom environment,. T this influence t can occur in a strongly subconscious assimilation. From these considerations,  we present an investigative method  applying to the  study of Boyle's law in an high school experimental class  to establish an educational reflection discussion of the benefits of the strategy.
