EDUCAÇÃO AMBIENTAL E FORMAÇÃO DOCENTE: UM LEVANTAMENTO DAS PRODUÇÕES ACADÊMICAS DO CURSO DE LICENCIATURA EM CIÊNCIAS BIOLÓGICAS DO IF GOIANO – CAMPUS CERES

Abstract

Amid the climate collapse that characterizes the contemporary world, the need to address environmental issues as a means of raising social awareness becomes evident. In this context, Environmental Education (EE) emerges as an essential tool for promoting environmental awareness, constituting a broad field of education that transcends the natural sciences, integrates multiple forms of knowledge, and plays a fundamental role in academic and civic formation, being a right guaranteed by the Federal Constitution. Therefore, this study, which adopts an explanatory methodology with a quali-quantitative approach, conducts a survey of academic works produced by graduates of the Biological Sciences Teaching Program at the Federal Institute Goiano – Ceres Campus, between 2013 and 2024. The aim is to understand students’ conceptions of Environmental Education and to identify the different scientific and methodological approaches present in their final papers, highlighting the role of the campus as a teacher-training institution and as a contributor to scientific production.
