O presente relatório desenvolveu-se no ambito da Unidade Curricular Prática de Ensino Supervisionada II no Mestrado em Ensino do 1ºCiclo do Ensino Básico e Matemática e Ciências Naturais do 2º Ciclo do Ensino Básico.
No decorrer da referida prática, foi desenvolvido um estudo (vertente investigativa), cuja motivação foi o interesse e a pertinencia do tema: a promoção da criação de práticas ambientais nos alunos do 2.º Ciclo do Ensino Básico. O objetivo do mesmo, foi levar os alunos a compreender alguns problemas ambientais, como, a diminuição da Biodiversidade e as alterações climáticas e ajudá-los a criar as sua próprias práticas ambientais, através de atividades práticas e do uso de eco-sensores. As questões de investigação definidas para o estudo são: i) Como posso ajudar as crianças a perceber os problemas ambientais, como a diminuição da biodiversidade e as alterações climáticas recorrendo a sensores? ii) Como posso apoiar as crianças na criação das suas práticas ambientais?
Esta investigação foi desenvolvida como um estudo de caso e foi realizada em duas turmas do 5ºano, onde decorreu a minha prática de ensino supervisionada, com um total de 49 alunos. O estudo de caso inclui uma atividade de Abordagem Baseada na Resolução de Problemas, “As aves em Portugal”, na criação de um “Mural da Biodiversidade” e uma atividade prática com recurso ao uso de eco-sensores de medição de temperatura.
Os resultados do estudo permitiram constatar que as crianças relacionaram as alterações climáticas, e especificamente o aumento de temperatura, com alterações no comportamento habitual das espécies, por exemplo no que se refere às migrações. No entanto devido ao pouco tempo em que decorreu o estudo, não foi possível aprofundar o estudo da Biodiversidade. As crianças foram capazes de identificar práticas ambientais minimizadoras das alterações climáticas, mas não foi possível investigar se houve criação de novas práticas no seu dia-a-dia.
ABSTRACT The current report has been developed within the scope of the Curricular Unit of Supervised Teaching Practice II under the master’s degree of Primary School teaching. During the aforementioned practice, a research study was developted, motivated by the relevance and motivation for the subject (Promotion of the creation of environmental practices by 2nd Cycle schoolchildren). The goal of this study was to support students in understanding some environmental problems, such as the loss of Biodiversity and climate change, while helping them in creating their own environmental practices, through hands-on activities and the use of eco-sensors. The research questions defined for this study are: i) How can I support children in understanding environmental issues, such as the loss of Biodiversity and climate change, through the usage of sensors? ii) How can I help children in creating their own environmental practices? This research was developed as a case study and the subjects were two 5th grade classes, where my supervised teaching pactice took place, with a total of 49 students. The case study included an ativity that used a Problem Solving Based Approach called “The birds in Portugal”, the creation of a “Biodiversity Mural” and a hands-on activity that used eco-sensors to measure temperature. The research results showed that children were able to relate climate change, specifically global temperature rise, with changes in the typical behavior of species, such as migration patterns. However, due to the short term nature of the study, it wasn’t possible to get enought insight on the Biodiversity topic. The children were able to identify climate change mitigating practices, but I wasn’t able to investigate whether they effectively created new environmental practices in their daily routines.
