Resumo

Este estudo busca esclarecer a influência da participação em um acampamento de ciências sobre a compreensão da Natureza da Ciência (NOS) por um grupo de estudantes chilenos. A amostra é composta por 39 alunos, com idades entre 15 e 18 anos, provenientes de escolas municipais da Região Metropolitana. Os acampamentos incluíram oficinas explícitas e reflexivas sobre a NOS e o desenvolvimento de uma investigação científica. As opiniões dos alunos sobre a NOS foram coletadas antes e depois da intervenção usando o questionário VNOS-D e entrevistas. Os resultados indicam que os alunos desenvolveram entendimentos mais informados sobre a maioria dos aspectos da NOS após a participação no acampamento; no entanto, alguns aspectos foram mais resistentes à mudança.
