Environmental crisis created by the various human actions combined with the lack of knowledge about this subject has been the subject of several discussions since the 1960s and 1970s, when it ceased to be a subject of environmental groups and became part of the agenda of various sectors of the Society, including schools. By having its origins in struggles and achievements in outside educational spheres groups, this discussion has advanced fragile way with regard to theoretical and methodological issues, and limitations of Environmental Education and its educational processes can be observed to date. In the current context it is necessary that EE is addressed in schools in a perspective that seeks to break away from reductionist, timely and pragmatic practices that aim only to separate waste, plant trees and conserve natural resources. more needs to be done in discussions that lead to our students to understand a more critical and transformative Environmental Education. In view of this, the study aimed to investigate the conceptual knowledge about Environmental Education of 22 students of sixth grade of Elementary School, from a State College of Dois Vizinhos town, Southwest of the State of Paraná, through the application of questionnaires and socioenvironmental experiences. For that, questions were asked about concepts related to Environmental Education and, later, practices were carried out on an ecological trail that is close to the college. Afterwards, these data were analyzed in a qualitative way, revealing a conservationist view on Environmental Education by most of the students (13), who were later worked through workshops carried out by students linked to PIBID/BIOLOGIA. |
