Science images through Iberoamérica: one word, one draw, different values

2014 
In this work we show the results of the spontaneous collection of words and drawings related to science. Four years, four context-categories, two different countries and nearly five hundred words make the total sample. Form high school classes to PCST2012 to Flea and tourist markets and the proper street, we asked to say one word, or to draw one thing related straightaway to science. The results are examined, grouped and discussed here, from a social and educational perspective. Tree categories were assigned in order to classify the type of words, and being related to the context of each collecting site. We also sought for conditionings in the words said by age and by the context of the sites. This is an experiment turned into paper, and the conclusions show beliefs and values that may be exemplified by the results or not; the final idea is to discuss these in the PCST2014 conference.
