Educação ambiental e valores: um olhar para os animais venenosos

A partir do final da década de 1960 diversos grupos em várias partes do mundo passaram a reconhecer o que chamamos de crise ambiental. Desde então diversos setores sociais vêm buscando maneiras de minimizar ou mesmo reverter o processo de degradação ambiental. Diante dessa problemática, o processo educativo é constantemente apontado como uma das formas de enfrentamento de tal crise. Entretanto, para que a educação ambiental (EA) atinja seus objetivos consideramos que esta deve ser trabalhada sob uma perspectiva crítica, contemplando três dimensões: a dimensão dos conhecimentos, a dimensão dos valores éticos e estéticos e a dimensão da participação política. Dessa forma, a EA aparece como uma proposta de educação da sociedade que pode contribuir para a revisão dos atuais valores e ações praticados por esta. Contudo, muitas vezes o que se observa nas práticas educativas é a apresentação de uma natureza destituída de valores, exceto pelo valor instrumental, ou seja, pela sua adequação às necessidades humanas, um modelo fragmentador e antropocêntrico. Dentro desse contexto, os animais venenosos e peçonhentos são geralmente vistos como maléficos ao homem, sendo seus aspectos ecológicos subestimados ou ignorados. A partir dessas reflexões, percebe-se a importância da criação e manutenção de programas de EA com enfoque mais adequado dos animais venenosos e peçonhentos para que a relação da sociedade com tais animais, bem como com o meio ambiente como um todo possam se transformar. Nesse sentido, a presente proposta de pesquisa objetivou identificar a existência de programas educativos com enfoque em animais venenosos e peçonhentos, analisando-os e verificando se trabalhariam com as três dimensões da educação ambiental. A pesquisa realizada é de natureza qualitativa, procedendo-se ao levantamento de programas que lidam com o tema em questão. Realizamos a análise do conteúdo dos documentos...

O papel da Universidade Aberta à Terceira Idade na educação ambiental

Population aging and environmental protection have gained special importance after the economic, demographic and social recent changes. The objective of this paper was to promote theoretical and reflective review with emphasis on convergence between sustainable development and educational activities promoted by the University of the Third Age. We conducted a literature review to give full articles from the descriptors: aged, sustainable development indicators and environmental protection, published in English, Spanish and Portuguese, between January 1994 and June 2014, in national and international journals on the basis LiIlacs, Bireme and Medline. We used systematic data collection for sample analysis. The results indicate that the University of the Third Age develops teaching, research and extension, through actions based on aging and educational assumptions. In this context, environmental education is presented as a pedagogical process capable of awakening the critical capacity of the elderly, making it active social worker and leading him to a cultural design which ensures establishment of sustainable harmonious relationship with nature. It was concluded that the University of the Third Age contributes to initiatives that emphasize the relationships between systems and economic processes or social and natural processes, generating the construction of social values, knowledge, skills, attitudes and skills aimed at the conservation of the environment.

A contribuição da história para educação ambiental em comunidades

The relationship between human beings and between them and nature are the result of a historical and social context in which they are inserted. The man is a natural living being who can only survive by the exchange with nature’s metabolism, but over time and human’s decisions this relation was interrupted, which strengthened by capitalism logic resulted as a civilization crisis. With these concerns, it’s necessary to overcome the context in which the crisis was generated, transforming the relationship between men and nature. This study, based on Critical Environmental Education and qualitative research methodology, occurred on a seashore community on Guarujá, investigated the the involvement of its population on social activities already developed on Prainha Branca: how they exercise their community citizenship, which factors limit these processes, and how responsible the residents feel about their own reality, in order to elucidate the aspects that involve that dynamics and population’s potential to build their own history.

A Razão e o Sagrado: suas contribuições filosóficas para a dessacralização da natureza

Este trabalho tem como objetivo mostrar como se efetuou, historicamente, através das idéias dos filósofos Pitágoras, Parmênides, Sócrates, Platão, Aristóteles, Tomás de Aquino, Francis Bacon, Descartes e Newton, a cisão entre os dois modos de conhecimento, o racional e o sensorial e como foi construída a religião cristã, de onde se originaram seus principais elementos, a imortalidade da alma e a existência de Deus, que fundamentaram uma religião tipicamente antropocêntrica, contributiva para uma visão utilitarista da natureza. Entende-se que estas duas categorias são essenciais para se entender como a natureza passou a ser dessacralizada completamente pelo ser humano e como foram criadas as bases filosóficas para a houvesse a dominação dos homens sobre outros homens, postas em práticas com o advento do capitalismo.

Contribuições da reconstrução racional didática no desenvolvimento de concepções epistemologicamente mais aceitáveis sobre a natureza da ciência e do progresso científico

This study inserts itself in the research line conceptions on the nature of the science (CNC) in the school atmosphere. More specifically, on that teacher of natural sciences who claims not to be interested in philosophy, it is usually noticed a tendency to understand and to teach a vision of a ready/ finished and unalterable science, which directly influences the students conception of science. Discussed here is the application of a didactic rational reconstruction in high school, the results of which are compatible with a more epistemologically acceptable educational concep tion on the nature of science as something provisory, variable and controversial.

Os conceitos de ambiente, meio ambiente e natureza no contexto da temática ambiental: definindo significados

We present some clarifications that enable us to identify differences between the expressions nature, the environment and environment. This is not an epistemological approach, but rather reflections on these expressions refer and the implications for environmental issues and hence to Science Teaching. The nature was understood as a complex of real entities, which are capable to be thinking through perception. This same entity when is represented by a mind, become what we call the environment. This expression, in turn, is characterized not only by adding the environments species that are known, but to be a human abstraction. When we consider the uniqueness of each species and organism, which in this environment is inserted, we call environment, this is, the elements that can be seen and on which the organism can act. Thus, we seek to develop a concept broader of environment, which is not restricted to the human species.

Dilemas contemporâneos da profissão professor: perspectivas de professores(as) de Educação Física da rede pública estadual de São Paulo

The purpose of this article is to reflect on the movement of professionalization of teaching, emphasizing the importance given to vocational training (initial and continuing) in this context.

It was concluded that this group is immersed in speeches ambiguous and contradictory processes, characterizing a movement of professionalization and concomitant deprofessionalization in teaching.

O que sabemos sobre a pesquisa brasileira voltada à educação em museus de ciências?
