O cerrado da Escola do Meio Ambiente traduzido em saberes para a sua preservação

O Cerrado é uma vegetação que já chegou a ocupar mais de 2 milhões de quilômetros quadrados, o que correspondia a 22% do território nacional. Ele vem sofrendo intensas agressões e interferências do homem e, por isso, está quase desaparecendo. O município de Botucatu possui muitos remanescentes deste bioma, e um deles está situado na Escola do Meio Ambiente/EMA (22°55'23”S e 48°27'28”W), local onde foi realizado o presente estudo. O objetivo deste trabalho é a produção de uma publicação sobre o bioma Cerrado. Para a produção deste material levou-se em conta os dados de um levantamento florístico do fragmento de Cerrado inserido na àrea da EMA, bem como dados de um questionário, que visa testar a hipótese de que a maioria das pessoas desconhece a vegetação deste bioma, desconhecendo inclusive que ela existe em Botucatu. Com dez perguntas abertas e fechadas, este questionário foi aplicado à pessoas que trabalham e/ou frequentam sete instituições (E.E. Parque Residencial 24 de Maio, E.M.E.F. Nair Amaral, PSF - Posto Saúde da Família do Jd. Aeroporto, ITE - Instituto Toledo de Ensino, FATEC - Faculdade de Tecnologia de Botucatu, ETA - Estação de Tratamento de Água e a Fundação CASA - Centro de Atendimento Socioeducativo ao Adolescente de Botucatu) situadas no mesmo bairro ou bairros vizinhos à EMA, locais onde, ainda, existem remanescentes desta vegetação. O levantamento florístico no fragmento de Cerrado da EMA mostrou que até o momento foram identificadas cinqüenta e duas espécies vegetais. A análise dos questionários demonstrou o desconhecimento dos entrevistados em relação à Flora do Cerrado local. Após a análise dos dados ficou clara a necessidade de produção de um material sobre este bioma, assim como acentuar a importância do trabalho de Educação Ambiental realizado na EMA

For this to occur, it is necessary to strengthen and continuous repetition, as possible in the school environment. Objective: To analyze teachers’ knowledge about oral health, practices developed in the school environment, as well as the participation of dentists in guiding teachers of primary and secondary schools. Subjects and method: We used a semi-structured questionnaire with open and closed questions about teacher training, received guidance on oral health during their training, development of oral health issues in the classroom and knowledge on the subject . Results: Of the total respondents (n = 221), only 77 (34.8%) said they had guidance on oral health in their training to be a teacher. 70 (31.7%) said they did not develop oral health issues in the classroom and 91 (41.2%) stated no interaction between dentist and professor. We observed deficiency in teachers’ knowledge about certain issues related to dental health. There was statistically significant association between the dentist’s guidance to teachers and the development of oral health actions and the teacher’s knowledge about the location of the first permanent molar eruption (p <0.01). Conclusion: This study conclude that although most educators develop educational practices on oral health in the school environment, there is a deficiency in understanding by teachers of certain subjects, making it necessary a greater participation of the dentist in the transmission of technical and scientific knowledge to them.
