Title

The Historical Evolution of Knowledge of the Universe: Errors in Secondary Education Textbooks in Spain

This article analyzes how science textbooks used in secondary education (ages 12 and 13) in Spain have treated the subject of the historical evolution of the Universe. We have discovered many very important errors in the different textbooks that we reviewed. We focus on the errors that are committed most frequently.
