This book was released on 2017-01-01 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Educação ambiental no ensino superior: reflexões e caminhos possíveis, trata-se de um esforço teórico em que Maria do Socorro da Silva Batista, ao observar sua experiência, busca construir elementos que subsidiem educadores e instituições no processo de fortalecimento de espaços para que a educação ambiental seja inserida na educação superior, especialmente na formação docente. Na obra, parte-se do pressuposto de que as universidades devem implementar esforços para inserir o tema meio ambiente e a educação ambiental em sua ação institucional, e especialmente em seus projetos de curso, notadamente no que se refere à formação docente. O curso de Pedagogia de uma universidade estadual brasileira é apresentado como uma experiência bem-sucedida no que se refere à inserção da educação ambiental, em que pesem as lacunas identificadas. Ao disponibilizar as reflexões contidas nesta obra para o público, pretende-se contribuir para que a educação ambiental seja efetivamente inserida na educação superior, especialmente na formação de professores e de professoras, condição fundamental para a efetivação da Política Nacional de Educação Ambiental.
Download or read book La Educaci n Ambiental en la Educaci n de J venes y Adultos EJA written by Maria da Conceição Almeida de Albuquerque and published by Editora Dialética. This book was released on 2021-09-24 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En la actual situación del planeta, la crisis ambiental ya parece ser un consenso mundial una vez que hay un reconocimiento generalizado en el mundo a cerca de la seriedad de los problemas ambientales que nos afectan. Como la Educación Ambiental (EA) está prevista en la legislación educacional brasileña y debe estar presente a partir del tema transversal Medio Ambiente de los Parámetros Curriculares Nacionales, La presente investigación buscó verificar las concepciones de Educación Ambiental de los profesores de la Escuela Municipal Profesora Hilda do Carmo Siqueira ubicada en Duque de Caxias, RJ, Brasil, que actúan en la Educación de Jóvenes y Adultos y procuró entender también de qué forma tales concepciones interfieren en sus prácticas pedagógicas. Para esto, se procuró identificar como se producía el abordaje de la EA, cuáles estrategias didácticas estaban siendo utilizadas y cuáles se hacían necesarias, considerando las dos principales corrientes que actúan en el campo de EA: la corriente preservacionista y la corriente crítica. Después del estudio se percibió que una gran parcela de los profesores posee una concepción preservacionista de EA con menos potencial de realizar los cambios necesarios para la superación de la actual crisis socio ambiental. En contrapartida solamente una parcela pequeña de los profesores (aproximadamente 30%) presentó concepciones que se aproximan más de la vertiente crítica de EA que es la vertiente capaz de realizar un contrapunto a la vertiente preservacionista por ser más transformadora, emancipatoria, que dialoga con los principios de la educación popular de Paulo Freire y de la pedagogía crítica. Esta Educación Ambiental Crítica en la Educación de Jóvenes y Adultos puede ayudar a los estudiantes, por los caminos pedagógicos, a buscar una concientización y así, a una consecuente mudanza de actitudes de manera que sea posible la comprensión de los problemas socio ambientales y que pueda contribuir para la transformación de los padrones actuales de uso y distribución de los recursos naturales.
Download or read book The Route Towards Global Sustainability written by Pardeep Singh and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-03-11 with total page 429 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume discusses topics of global sustainability involving sustainability indicators, stakeholders' participation, and technological and strategic advances with the goal of "thinking locally to act globally". Scientists, academics, policymakers, and planners are currently focused on escalating global socioeconomic and ecological issues, such as rising inequality, adverse anthropogenic impacts on the environment, and deficiencies in natural resources. These variables are pushing the earth system's resistance capacity past its breaking point, with additional pressures incurred by a global pandemic. Therefore, this book looks to impart knowledge on participatory learning action research for human and environmental health and well-being. Sustainable development planning and management are needed in these pressing circumstances, and they necessitate an analytical interpretation of ongoing processes, current and future challenges, and an understanding of available tools and technologies. The main sections of the book focus on challenges and management practices for global sustainability, promoting educational values, smart initiatives in urban contexts, and integrating emerging sustainability dimensions in policies and legislation. The primary audience for the work is policy makers, urban planners, social scientists, economists, NGOs, and students, researchers, and educators engaged in environmental social science and sustainability management.

Download or read book Capitalism and Environmental Collapse written by Luiz Marques and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-08-17 with total page 463 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book intends to be an alert to the fact that the curve measuring environmental costs against the economic benefits of capitalism has irreversibly entered into a negative phase. The prospect of an environmental collapse has been evidenced by the sciences and the humanities since the 1960s. Today, it imposes its urgency. This collapse differs from past civilizations in that it is neither local nor just civilizational. It is global and occurs at the broadest level of the biosphere, accelerated by the convergence of different socio-environmental crises, such as: Earth energy imbalance, climate change and global warming Sea-level rise Decrease and degradation of forests Collapse of terrestrial and aquatic biodiversity Floods, droughts, wildfires, and extreme weather events Degradation of soils and water resources Increase in pollution caused by fossil fuels and coal Increase in waste production and industrial intoxication The book is divided in two parts. In the first part it presents a comprehensive review of scientific data to show the already visible effects of each of the different environmental crises and its consequences to human life on Earth. In the second part, Luiz Marques critically discusses what he calls the three concentric illusions that prevent us from realizing the gravity of the current socio-environmental crises: the illusion of a sustainable capitalism, the illusion that economic growth is still capable of providing more well-being and the anthropocentric illusion. Finally, Marques argues that "fitting" back into the biosphere will only be possible if we dismantle the expansive socioeconomic gear that has shaped our societies since the 16th century by moving from a Social Contract to a Natural Contract, which takes into account the whole biosphere. According to him, the future society will be post-capitalist or it will not be a complex society, and even perhaps, we must fear, no society at all. “This book is backed up with the latest and best science and has made the complexities understandable for the average reader, all in a context of hope for the future.” - William J. Ripple, PhD, Distinguished Professor of Ecology, Director of the Alliance of World Scientists, Oregon State University

Sections are devoted to theoretical issues, studies of genres in the professions, studies of genre and media, teaching and learning genre, and writing across the curriculum. The broad selection of material in this volume displays the full range of contemporary genre studies and sets the ground for a next generation of work.
