“…Así, Ogborn [9] ha apuntado la tendencia de los alumnos a atribuir a la energía la causa de que los procesos ocurran; Solbes y Tarín [10] han analizado las ideas de los estudiantes acerca de la energía y la forma como se enseña dicho concepto en la etapa de secundaria; Speltini y Dibar [11] han investigado qué entienden por conservación de la energía los alumnos de ingeniería; Liu, Ebenezer y Fraser [12] las concepciones mantenidas por universitarios; Stylianidou, Ormerod y Ogborn [13] las dificultades de los alumnos ante los dibujos e imágenes que se incluyen en los libros de texto en los capítulos referidos a la energía...…”
