Conceptions are fundamental to plan didactic actions in the achievement of gradual changes towards an integrated vision of the science. This investigation evidenced the change of conceptions in scientific theories in students of education of the University of The Andes, Venezuela. The methodology was descriptive to evaluate a course with progressive character in the modification of conceptions on the scientific theories. The conclusions show that: the course was important to modify some conceptions on the scientific theories; the conceptions that more stand out are positivists; the classes supported with video turned out to be of major dynamics and discussion on the sciences.

Keywords : Change conceptions; evaluation; progressive course; scientific theories.
