Description

Scientific concepts are abstract human constructions designed to explain complex natural phenomena. In this work from Routledge, the authors examine how scientists use specialized languages, diagrams, and mathematical representations to communicate these ideas. By applying the perspectives of embodied cognition and conceptual metaphor, this book explores the processes learners use to make sense of abstract scientific information. The text operates on the premise that human cognition, including scientific thought, is grounded in the physical body and the specific material and social contexts in which it exists. This approach provides a unique way to look at how understanding is built. For researchers and educators interested in the intersection of cognitive science and science education, this book offers a deep look into how we process and internalize complex scientific knowledge through our physical and social experiences.
