So called alternative conceptions extended and mixed in diverse fields beyond the sciences, tend to be organized in more or less diffuse lay mini-theories, have components at different levels of specificity and consciousness, and may be based in strong framework theories. Lay theories differ from scientific ones not only in their content, but also in the nature of their conceptualizations, in their methodology and even in their epistemology. Although the embryos of scientific theories can be constructed during the basic school years, the main effort has to be directed towards the complexification of everyday theories. That calls for a rich, warm and democratic school environment, centered in project-learning and open to the outside world. The purpose of this article is to determine how television, more specifically, violence on television, affects on children's behavior.
Television plays a significant role in the lives and socialization of children.
As a matter of fact, children spend as much time watching television as they do listening to their teachers in school. This research article examines the relationship between violent television viewing and children's aggressiveness. It also presents how children learn some violent behaviors from the content of television and imitate some character of the violent programs. It concludes that sex, age, and social status are also some of the most decisive varia-bles that influence the effects of television on the individuals behavior. Education for diversity has to be based necessarily on a wide conception of the curriculum, that offers opportunities to all the students in order to place them within the regular education school.
