Um balanço da produção científica em educação ambiental de 2001 a 2009 (ANPEd, ANPPAS e EPEA)

This paper reviews the scientific literature in environmental education (EE) in the period 2001-2009 through the studies presented at the Annual Meetings of the ANPEd ANPPAS and EPEAs. The approach integrates survey and analysis of published studies regarding the thematic emphases and characteristics of the authors. The results indicate: i) a female predominance in all degree levels, ii) most authors doctors in the events of ANPEd and ANPPAS while teachers predominate in EPEA, iii) works mostly coming from public higher education institutions in the three events surveyed iv) greater representation of southern and southeastern regions at the ANPEd and EPEA meetings, and at ANPPAS meetings dominate the Southeast and Midwest, v) EE in formal education stands out as a thematic concern in all events investigated. This paper also dis cusses the relevance of these indicators for the legitimation of EA as an area of scientific production.Este trabalho mapeia a producao cientifica em educacao ambiental (EA), no periodo de 2001 a 2009, por meio de trabalhos apresentados nas Reunioes Anuais da ANPEd, nos Encontros da ANPPAS e nos EPEAs. Os trabalhos identificados sao analisados quanto as enfases tematicas e as caracteristicas dos autores. Os resultados indicam: i) predominância do sexo feminino em todos os niveis de titulacao; ii) maioria de autores doutores/as nos eventos da ANPEd e da ANPPAS, enquanto no EPEA predominam mestres; iii) trabalhos majoritariamente procedentes de IES publicas nos tres eventos pesquisados; iv) maior representatividade das regioes Sudeste e Sul nas reunioes da ANPEd e no EPEA, sendo que nos encontros da ANPPAS predominam as regioes Sudeste e Centro-Oeste; v) a EA no ensino formal destaca-se como preocupacao tematica em todos os eventos investigados. Discute-se, ainda, a relevância desses indicadores para a legitimacao da EA como area de producao cientifica.

A missão "ecocivilizatória" e as novas moralidades ecológicas: a educação ambiental entre a norma e a antinormatividade

This essay deals with the apparent tension between the normative standards and expectations of anti-normativity standards involved in environmental education (EE). We discuss the meanings that are being produced on and from the practice of EA and involve the socialization of an environmental citizenship, imbued with a normative character and, at the same time, an emancipatory ideology. We opted for an interpretative route, where environmental education constitutes itself as one of the “new ecological moralities.”

One decade of environmental education research in Brazil: trajectories and trends in three national scientific conferences (ANPEd, ANPPAS and EPEA)

Abstract This article discusses the scientific research work on environmental education presented during the last decade in three Brazilian conferences: the meetings of the National Association of Graduate Research on Education (Associação Nacional de Pós-Graduação e Pesquisa em Educação, ANPEd), the National Association of Graduate Research on Environment and Society (Associação Nacional de Pós-Graduação e Pesquisa em Ambiente e Sociedade, ANPPAS), and the Environmental Education Research Meetings (Encontros de Pesquisa em Educação Ambiental, EPEA). It analyzes the authors, institutions, and regions whence the studies came from, as well as their main research subjects. Our findings indicate the prevalence of women in all academic degree segments; of PhD holders and candidates; of professors in public higher education institutions located in the Brazilian Southwest and South regions; and of environmental education in formal teaching as the main subject in all three conferences. Based on these results, we discuss how this body of research relates to the development of Brazilian academic and educational policies, and indicate some of the challenges involved in building a research tradition in this field, in close dialogue with the arduous political and pedagogical path of environmental education in Brazilian schools.
