标题:A Study of the Relationship between the Understanding of the Basic Genetic Concepts and Perspectives Regarding Genetically Modified Products and Local Production among Undergraduate and High School Students
摘要:AbstractBiotechnological education is an unavoidable challenge that the educational system needs to examine in order to guarantee that citizens can understand the constant developments of biotechnological knowledge.In this vein, this research consists of a preliminary attempt to try to pave the way to a better comprehension of the conceptual and cognitive foundations of the critical understanding of genetic engineering. To this end, the research studies three variables among a wide range of undergraduate and high school students: the knowledge about basic genetic concepts, the tendency to support or criticize the production of food and the attitudes towards local production.
