Full-fledged teacher’s training includes a chain: subscience — metascience — didactics. Often neglected are metascience, and therefore didactics, claims the author. From his point of view, metascience mustn’t be identified with the philosophy of science.
Key words: metascience, philosophy of science, didactics, philosophy of pedagogy.
