Continuing Training Courses for Science Teachers through Distance Education: development of a course on History of Chemistry


Soledad ESTEBAN
Abstract

Distance education provides a very adequate way for the continuing training of professionals. In this way, the Spanish distance university offers an open learning programme devoted to train secondary school teachers. We discuss here the design and development of a course of this type about history of chemistry for science teachers, so that they can update their knowledge and improve their pedagogical skills on this subject.
