SOCIETY-NATURE RELATIONSHIPS IN PERSPECTIVE: ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION IN TEACHER TRAINING COURSES IN CHEMISTRY OF FEDERAL INSTITUTES IN BRAZIL. Environmental Education arises in the context of understanding the urgency of the environmental crisis and the need to seek answers for its mitigation. The different perspectives of AE compete for the affirmation of notions of the world, of society, of social well-being, of work and of life. The research investigated the conceptions of Environmental Education (EA) present in the scope of the Federal Institutes, having as corpus the Pedagogical Course Project (PPC) of teacher training courses in chemistry offered in these institutions in 23 states and in the Federal District. The documents were analyzed, in their entire body, with the aid of Textual Discursive Analysis (ATD). The results demonstrate the predominance of a conservative environmental education, of an apolitical and biologizing character, in the analyzed documents, what can be reflected in the profile of the chemical educator to be formed in these institutions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
