Concepções e práticas da educação ambiental no ensino remoto: Uma análise da percepção docente.

Abstract

Given the need to better understand the reality that permeates this moment of pandemic, this study consists of an analysis on the theme of Environmental Education and remote education, together with elementary and high school teachers and teachers from municipal and private schools. This work aims to understand the conceptions and practices of basic education teachers in teaching Environmental Education in the remote context. As a study methodology, it has a qualitative approach, characterizing itself as a field research, through the application of a semi structured questionnaire composed of eight questions and in remote classroom observation by one of the teachers. Thus, it was found that the prospects of working with Environmental Education remotely represent a challenge, which is related to difficulties in pedagogical practices and in the involvement and participation of students. However, when these activities are related to innovative methodologies and the use of accessible technologies, they have a great possibility of involving the student and, thus, developing a significant learning about Environmental Education. The study concludes by proposing that teacher training and improvement courses for remote and hybrid education should be offered, in view of its importance in active pedagogical practices to address the environmental issue.
