Abstract

This article aims to show the results of the critical analysis of the theory
studied during the Master’s Degree in History of Science: Science, History and Society (UAB-UB) through the contrast with a technical mass media such as television. To this end, a series of practices were made in the scientific popularisation program Quèquicom (TVC). The purpose was to identify the communication model used, as well as the interaction between the different epistemological agents involved in the process. The final result was recorded in a Master’s Dissertation, concluding that the communication model used between the different epistemological agents involved in the process is heterogeneous due to the distinctive feature of the technical medium that is television.
