Abstract

In this study we show the results of a a Scientific Literacy Project carried out by a team of professors of two different departments of the Faculty of Education of the University of Seville (Spain). The aim of the Project is to improve the scientific knowledge in the future teachers, by using the water and its socio-environmental problems as theme. The teaching innovation positions the students as the principal actors of the learning/teaching process. In our opinion, they not only learn about Science, but they take an active role as scientific communicators, developing skills to teach.
