A educação ambiental como veículo de inclusão social na Escola Rural 21 de Abril - Linha Rincão Fundo - Panambi/RS

Abstract

This research had as general goal to accompany the practice in Environment Education at the Municipal School 21 de Abril. The school is located in a rural zone of Panambi-RS, more precisely in Linha Rincão Fundo, 10 km away from the center of the Municipality. In this sense, environment values and attitudes of the students taking part in the Projeto Criar will be investigated, analyzing the main aspects that form the environment basis of the participant teenagers and identifying what kind of materials can be used and or reused in the making of new objects in the process of education. Questionnaires were used as a data collecting method. The research identified the knowledge of the students taking part in the Projeto Criar. The results obtained along this work show the various current environment factors that are of concern to mankind, mainly because the natural phenomena are creating a harmony imbalance between man and environment, generating losses in all ecosystems, to the health of human beings and to the world economy. Because the human being is more concerned about his comfort and way of life. The environment problems are left aside or not even recognized. Therefore Projeto Criar calls the attention of society to a youth that may contribute to a sustainable environment and that actions like these may bring great social benefits.
