Educação ambiental no ensino de biologia: uma revisão bibliográfica

Abstract

This study aimed to conduct a bibliographic review of Environmental Education in Biology teaching, focusing on articles published in the SciELO platform between July 2019 and June 2024. Out of the 245 initially identified articles, 20 were selected based on stringent criteria, revealing a growing interest in research on this topic, particularly in 2021. The qualitative analysis of these studies highlighted pedagogical practices and challenges encountered in implementing Environmental Education in basic education schools. The research emphasizes the relevance of this approach for fostering a more aware and engaged society regarding environmental issues. Furthermore, the need for educator training to integrate Environmental Education into the Science curriculum was underscored, highlighting the importance of preparing future professionals for this challenge. This study contributes to a broader understanding of the role of Environmental Education in Biology teaching and suggests exploring interdisciplinary areas in future research to further enhance this approach.
