An Alternative Proposal for the Teaching of Chemistry in High School: A Technical Visit to a Soft Drink Factory
Abstract
The current teaching progress in schools is very distant from the needs required for the student’s formation as a citizen. In order to get the student’s interest in exploring and comprehending of everyday facts, a visit to a soft drink factory was carried out. This proposal allows not only a good learning process but also the integration of theoretical concepts and living experiences.
