Resumo
Atualmente a questão ambiental é um dos grandes problemas enfrentados pela sociedade moderna e debatidos pro profissionais de diferentes áreas. Nas últimas décadas novas leis estão sendo implementadas visando criar, resgatar e difundir hábitos que levem em questão a preservação do espaço. As instituições de ensino estão se adequando às novas necessidades e cabe aos professores a realização de uma série de atividades que atendam a realidade ambiental específica de cada região. Neste sentido, esta pesquisa tem uma perspectiva educacional e ambiental e, na sua realização acompanhamos o desenvolvimento e aplicação de um projeto educacional num assentamento rural de Araraquara/SP. Ela teve por objetivo verificar a efetividade dos propósitos definidos pelo projeto escola do campo no que tange a aceitação da comunidade e principalmente ao exercício do trabalho dos professores com temas relacionados ao resgate cultural e difusão de valores que apresentem uma preocupação com a conservação ambiental. Tratou-se de um estudo referenciado numa abordagem qualitativa de cunho etnográfico. Como instrumentos de coleta de dados foram utilizados a observação participante, a análise documental e entrevistas. Nos resultados procuramos fazer uma discussão teórica sobre os problemas ambientais e educacionais enfrentados pelas zonas rurais brasileiras, enfatizando as vantagens e dificuldades apresentadas pelos professores na aplicação de atividades que discutiam a temática ambiental, sugerindo que, para atingir resultados mais eficientes seria necessário uma melhor formação inicial e/ou capacitação dos professores.
Environmental issues are currently some of the most serious challenges that modern society faces. The degradation of the environment is an issue that is being discussed by several different professional fields and involves many other sectors of society. In the last few decades new laws have been implemented to create new behaviors that address environmetal conservation. Educational institutions are complying with the environmental laws and it is up to educational professionals to address environmental issues, using a series of comprehensive educational tools to adapt to the specific environmental challenges of each area. With this in mind, our research has both environmental and educational goals. In our research we followed the development and application to an educational project at the agriculture seat of Araraquara, state of Sao Paulo. The educational project goal was to verify the effectiveness of the proposals defined by the rural school project. It also focused on the teacher's performence in subjects related to the reclamation and diffusion of cultural values that have a concern with environmental conservation. It was a study with a qualitative approach from the ethnographic point of view. The process of data retrieving was done in three ways: participant observation, document analysis, and interviews. In the study conclusion we try to engage in a theoretical discussion about the environmental and educational problems that challenge rural areas in Brazil. We emphasized the advantages and disavantages shown by the professors throughout the application of the activities that touched the environmental question. As result we concluded that in order to achieve better results, further education of the professors would be necessary to increase their capacities for teaching the new environmental values.
