The purpose of this research article is to contribute to the processes of scientific education of middle school students based on the development of argumentative ability, considering studies about physical principles. The argumentative skills addressed a learning sequence (LS), integrated into the STS approach, have proved the importance of a contextualized didactic process that encourages learning of fundamental aspects of the Nature of Science (NoS), particularly those opinions of students regarding external sociology of Science and Technology. The process evaluation, a quasi-experimental research design (pretest-LS-posttest), allowed us to recognize an improvement in the student's argumentative ability and their progress about Science and Technology. Thus, results show significant changes in students answers to specific situations in Halpern test and Opinion Questionnaire on Science and Technology.

Palabras clave : argumentative skill; critical thinking; science; technology; teaching; learning.
