Adaptation and application of didactic methods for E.J.A. in the teaching of environmental education

The education of youth and adults (EYA) is focused on students who had no access, or have not adapted to the regular school within the appropriate age range. Prioritizing environmental education, questions whether the teaching methods, if they meet the goals that have, or bring students a critical conscience about to the environment in which they live, individually and collectively. This study aimed to test four proposed differentiated methodology used in middle and high school, with students in adult education. The methodology addressed two main themes, living beings and the ecosystem. Practices were conducted in the discipline of science, with 25 students EYA aged 16-60 years and submitted later activities, to the application of a questionnaire evaluation of the used method. The results were based on the evaluation forms completed by the students and the behavior exhibited by the same given to the procedures. We obtained satisfactory results in relation to student learning, compared to the use of traditional teaching methods. Although these practices have been useful in class EYA for teaching environmental education, could still be developed, tested, and even reworked many other dynamics specific to this type of education, not only in the discipline of science, but also covering other areas education.
