PAULA-ACOSTA, Caridad Amado; PEREZ-LOPEZ, Jesús  e  SIERRA-SOCORRO, Julio Jesús. Environmental Education With an Integrative Approach. An Experience in the Initial Formation of Teachers of Mathematics and Physics. Educare [online]. 2019, vol.23, n.1, pp.181-202. ISSN 1409-4258.  http://dx.doi.org/10.15359/ree.23-1.10.

In the present work, the integrative approach of the process of environmental education in the initial formation of Mathematics and Physics professors of the University of Pinar del Río “Hermanos Saíz Montes de Oca” is studied in depth, given the shortcomings that at the cognitive, procedural, and attitudinal level the graduates of this career have in order to keep up with the school requirements. This approach is conceived from all the components of professional training (university, labor, research, and extension components) and is concretized in each academic year based on integrative projects. For this purpose, we used methods of the theoretical, empirical and mathematical-statistical levels of knowledge. The practical validity of the proposal was evaluated from its introduction in the first year of the career through a pre-experiment where 22 students and 11 teachers participated. The techniques used to collect the information were a survey, interviews, and a pedagogical test. The results obtained show the effectiveness of the proposal, since its use allowed to transform the actions of teachers and students in the academic year and made possible the integrated appropriation of the environmental contents. This experience is generalizable to other academic years and university careers; for this, it is recommended to start from the professional problems related to the environmental education that future graduates must solve according to their profile, as well to guarantee the prior methodological training of teachers of different subjects for interdisciplinary work and cooperate with projects of the year.
