Exploring NOS in the interview given by Niels Bohr in 1962: Implications for science teaching

Abstract:

Parts of an interview that Niels Bohr gave between October and November 1962 with Thomas Kuhn, Léon Rosenfeld, Aage Petersen, and Erik Rudinger are the subject of this article, which attempts to investigate questions about the nature of science. The intention is to support the growth of scientific conversations and introspection within the framework of science education. In such a manner, the article correlates excerpts from this interview, other historical materials, and publications by and about Bohr.
