El concepto de geosinclinal tras la revolución movilista: otro desajuste entre la ciencia actual y la ciencia en el aula

Abstract

A revision of Geology and Physical Science textbooks widely used at high-school leve1 shows that the geosyncline idea (in itself or as a part of plate tectonics theory) is frequently presented as a tenable hypothesis on mountain origins. As this is not a scientifically acceptable position any more, a great deal of confusion is probably being created among both students and teachers without very solid geologic foundations
