Abstract

The present work investigated the perceptions of a group of licensing in Physics from the Federal University of Sergipe about the interrelationships between Science-Technology-Society. The significance of our work lies in the fact that studies on the views of teachers about the interrelationships CTS is one of the key aspects in an attempt to predict the direction of scientific and technological literacy. The first is related to the assembly and application of a Likert scale, called this work of CTS questionnaire to evaluate the positioning of the group toward interactions Science-Technology-Society. In the second stage, from the results obtained in the first step, they chose six affirmative of questionnaire CTS for that were commented by licensing. The answers of the second stage were categorized according to the proposals of Miranda (2008), in realistic, plausible, and other simplistic answers. The comparison of results obtained in two stages of this work allowed to assess the thinking of future teachers in terms of similarities and differences for the three parameters proposed by Auler and Delizoicov (2006).
