A educação ambiental nas escolas da rede municipal de ensino de Aporé-GO

Abstract

The present work aims to make an analysis of the situation of Environmental Education in the schools of the municipal school system of the municipality of Aporé in the state of Goiás. With the aggravation of the environmental problems, due to the increase of the consumerism, the predatory exploitation of the natural resources and Due to the irreversibility of environmental damage, the implementation of Environmental Education as an instrument of disalienation and social transformation is urgent as a result of the construction of a new societal paradigm, whose human and natural values ​​overlap market values. Environmental Education is not in itself the salvation of the planet, but it is a fundamental instrument for the construction of a new form of relationship between human beings and nature. Thus, we sought to make an analysis of the effectiveness of Environmental Education in school spaces, considering legal legitimacy that treats the theme as cross-sectional and compulsory in the curriculum from early childhood education. During the study it was found that Environmental Education is not yet a reality in school, it is not worked across as advocated by legislation, on the contrary, some fragmented actions are perceived. At the end of the work were identified as possible causes for the non-implementation of Environmental Education, the inefficiency of the initial and continuing training of teachers, regarding the preparation for dealing with the subject. Teachers do not know the legislation, nor do they recognize the theoretical precepts that underpin the proposals for the realization of Environmental Education in schools.
