Métodos de uso do solo e composição química da água como ferramentas para educação ambiental

Abstract

The indiscriminate use of natural resources like water and soil require an immediate paradigm shift. This change involves education.The educational process requires the abandonment of highly theoretical content and a resumption of the practice. Environmental Education as a transversal theme and plays an important role in these changes. Teachers from all areas can and should use this "tool" to enrich their interdisciplinary lessons and leave in the memory of his students the importance of this issue. The practice leaves memories that the theory is not capable to realize. When dealing with are two important issues such as water and soil, it might work physical, chemical and biological, both jointly, as compartmentalized. It’s became a field trip, both for collection as well as to perform practical activities, such as the comprehension of materials, calculations, classification of different soil types and aspects of the practice of interdisciplinary environmental education incorporated in the teaching practices. Therefore, to analyze the chemical composition of samples of soil and water is just one of many possibilities of enrichment classes that use environmental education as a tool and proposed practical activity.
