Educação Ambiental no Ensino de Jovens e Adultos: estudo sobre a inserção da Educação Ambiental no Ensino Médio no Centro de Ensino Liceu Maranhense - São Luís - MA

Abstract

The theme of this work was Environmental Education in the Teaching of Young People and Adults: a study on the insertion of Environmental Education in High School at the Liceu Maranhense Teaching Center - São Luís – MA. The present study aimed to understand the relationship between EJA high school students at Escola Liceu Maranhense in São Luís - Maranhão and the environment. This research contains a questionnaire on Environmental Education, which is essentially based on the strategy of understanding the relationship between human beings and nature. Environmental perception is the way people interpret the environment, and the application of questionnaires served as a parameter to evaluate this perception. The application of the questionnaire to the students served to evaluate them, both their behavior related to the environment inside and outside the classroom, and served to raise awareness about environmental conservation practices, given the need that our planet has faced. Schools, in partnership with government educational bodies, urgently need to define the role of environmental education within EJA and all teaching modalities. This topic needs to be more prominent, and can be an autonomous discipline
