On the issue of academic literacy, there is still debate about who and how to assume this task. As alternative strategies for interdisciplinary work, our interest is on the reading of specialized texts used in mother tongue language courses. The goal is to support learners interested in tools for understanding texts and the conceptual mastery of their discipline. This task requires language teachers to have a basic knowledge of the discipline. Therefore discipline teachers are expected to collaborate to provide key elements to relate reading strategies with specialized concepts of their subject in a joint effort to read to learn. This paper presents an experience to generate interdisciplinary work with discipline teachers. This reflection focuses on the documents used, aimed at designing a methodological sequence for the text, and the results of the classroom intervention.

The concept of World View was proposed by Wilhem Dilthey as part of providing grounds to the “sciences of the spirit”. Later, William Cobern established this concept in the Science Education. This article deals with the World View concept and shows its beginnings, the main characteristics, and its subsequent developments. Particularly, the research presents the basic theoretical assumptions of the World View of Kearney, that Cobern revisited later. Finally, we expose the importance and the implications of the concept for the Science Education.
