Resumo
A necessidade de se reduzir o consumo de energia se fundamenta nas questões ambientais uma vez que a poluição atmosférica, chuva ácida e alteração climática global estão intimamente relacionadas com a produção e utilização de energia. É com esse desafio que essa investigação buscou, por meio de um estudo sobre biocombustíveis na educação básica, promover a formação do indivíduo com competências básicas, contribuindo para que esse indivíduo saiba lidar com a tecnologia e adquira senso crítico para atuar por uma sociedade melhor e intervir nos problemas ambientais relativos a questões energéticas. Para tanto, a contribuição foi feita por meio do processo educativo, com o olhar dirigido ao educador. Por meio de formação continuada de professores, a pesquisa promoveu a intervenção nas propostas de projetos de ensino dos educadores com diferentes estratégias de ensino para abordar o tema biocombustíveis entre outros relativos à energia. As estratégias citadas foram: o trabalho de campo, muito utilizado em projetos de educação ambiental; registros do professor e do aluno, denominados diários de aprendizagem; planejamento do projeto de ensino ou do plano de trabalho docente para a condução de trabalhos de alunos por meio da Aprendizagem Baseada em Projetos (ABP); e a avaliação de desempenho com critérios de excelência definidos entre professores e alunos na forma de rubricas. O desenvolvimento de projetos no contexto escolar, conduzidos por meio da ABP, demonstrou ser uma estratégia de ensino indicada à formação integral do aluno, em especial, nos conteúdos atitudinais, o que foi possível verificar na reflexão dos atores (alunos e professores) envolvidos nesse processo
The need to reduce energy consumption is based on environmental issues since air pollution, acid rain and global climate change are closely related to the production and use of energy. It is with this challenge that this research sought, through a study of biofuels in high education, to promote the formation of the individual with basic skills, contributing so that that individual can handle the technology and acquire critical thinking to work for a better society and intervene in environmental problems related to energy issues. With a view to this purpose, the contribution was made through the educational process, with a focus on the educator. Through the continued formation of the teachers, the research has promoted the intervention in the educator‟s teaching projects, emphasizing different teaching strategies to address the issue of biofuels and other energy-related issues. The strategies mentioned were: the field work, often used in environmental education projects; records of the teacher and the student, known as learning logs; planning of the teaching project or of the teaching plan for driving the students‟ work through Project Based Learning (PBL); and the performance evaluation based on excellence criteria established between teachers and students in the form of rubrics. The development of projects in schools, conducted by means of a PBL approach, proved to be a teaching strategy indicated to the formation of the student as a whole, especially in the attitudinal contents, which could be seen from the reflection of the actors (students and teachers) involved in this process
