Abstract
The evolution of technology and its applications highlights the need for scientific literacy development as one of education’s main objectives. This paper is a didactic proposal for the introduction in Secondary Education of modern physics subjects, such as wetting states, while familiarizing students with elements of scientific methodology, such as constructing and using models. The design and development of a teaching series in which models are promoted as tools for students to interpret and predict wetting phenomena is described.
