Abstract

In the last years, there has been a quick increase in the development of genetic technologies with important economic, ethical or social implications which are provoking many questions of great relevance. Young students are immersed in news on Genetics and Molecular Biology, subjects that will be more and more common, and they will be demanded to make substantiated decisions. Nevertheless, generally, little is known about what young people know or think about these issues. The great social development that the Genetics is acquiring, their wide media coverage, the incorporation of this matter in the curriculum of secondary education, the difficulties found in the learning of genetic, are some of the reasons that make necessary a deeper investigation through a didactic perspective. In this work, aspects related to the education of the genetics have been analyzed from both the point of view of the formal education and from the informal one.
