Scientific Models in Modernity and Post-Modernity

The bibliographical research centered around the scientific paradigms of modernity and post-modernity and had Mário Bunge as one of its most important theoretical references, taking into account his ideas on the theory of models. The aim was to relate the scientific paradigms to the concepts of intelligence and learning, which interfere with education and the forms it takes today, allowing researchers in this area to acquire subsidies for their studies, based on the principles of the philosophy of science. This relationship makes it possible to understand how these concepts have changed according to the scientific paradigms of each era and how they have interfered in the pedagogical actions adopted in educational systems in general. The book is divided into two chapters, the first of which deals with the modern and post-modern epistemological models and the second analyzes the concepts of intelligence and learning according to these models. Happy reading!
