Publisher's Synopsis
This study aimed to demonstrate the application of Sauve's cartography of environmental education currents to high school teachers of a public school in the municipality of Uirauna - PB. The study used as theoretical assumptions, methodological investigation of bibliographic research and field study, through a qualitative and descriptive approach, characterized by the development and clarification of ideas. As an instrument for data collection, a questionnaire consisting of 16 questions was applied to 25 high school teachers of the EEEFM Doutor Jose Duarte Filho in the city of Uirauna - PB. The obtained data were analyzed according to the cartography of currents of Environmental Education of Sauve. The results attested how the scenario of Environmental Education is heterogeneous, indicating different visions and, therefore, different teaching methods in relation to the environment. The teaching methodology practiced by teachers in the disciplines that work with Environmental Education varies according to the conceptions of environment that each one has, demonstrating that the teacher does not follow a single current of Environmental Education, being the adoption of these currents.
