Ecoformação e educação para a paz: intervenções ecoformadoras nos anos iniciais do ensino fundamental

Abstract

The present work had as general objective to analyze the theoretical and practical contributions of Eco-formation from the perspective of Education for Peace, for the integral formation of Elementary School students, specifically in a 5th year class of a municipal school in the city of Ponta Grossa, in the State of Paraná. As a complement to the central objective, the actions addressed were: to establish practices that aim at Eco-formation; To apply pedagogical activities focusing on Eco-formation from the point of view of Education for Peace; Analyze the practices developed and structure an e-book articulating knowledge and practices on Eco-formation and Education for Peace. As a theoretical contribution to the research, we studied Galvani (2002), Moraes (2007, 2008, 2012), Pineau (2004, 2006), Sommerman (2003) and Suanno (2014, 2016). In the issues of Education for Peace, the theorists analyzed were Guimarães (2005, 2010), Jares (2002, 2007), Serrano (2002) and Tuvilla Rayo (2004). In order to establish the converging points between Eco-formation and Peace Education, support studies on complexity, especially in the ideas of Edgar Morin (2000, 2001, 2003, 2005, 2008, 2011, 2012, 2013a, 2013b, 2015). Considering the established theoretical framework, we started with qualitative and exploratory field research, using the Content Analysis, according to Bardin (2009) and Franco (2012), as a support for data collection and analysis. As an articulating element of pedagogical practices - Experiences with Nature - the conceptual support came from Cavalcanti (2010), Cornell (2008), Mendonça (2008) and Tillmann (2001). The interventions carried out with the students took place under the backdrop of the Local Curriculum Guidelines for Basic Education - Natural Knowledge, (PONTA GROSSA, 2015), aiming at the relationship with Eco-formation and Education for Peace. Based on the interpretation of the data, it is considered that the complexity approach, articulating thr Knowledge of Eco-formation and Education for Peace, brings a renewed and expanded perspective on the issues of natural knowledge interconnected with all life forms, qualifying the human coexistence and the different environments experienced.
