Abstract

This article synthesizes reflections on the process of forming theoretical concepts in science education based on P. Ya. Galperin's theory. We take as context some criticisms traditionally made to the theory, reinforced (although not intentionally) in current research studies in the Brazilian context that address this process. We start from the logical dialectical nature of theoretical concepts and the role of their definition to justify the formation of the type III as a psychological learning mechanism of these concepts. In the discussion, we intend to offer a point of view that is opposed to theoretical positions that we consider partial interpretations or misunderstandings of Galperin's ideas, always recognizing their limitations, typical of any scientific theory.
