Abstract

This is a qualitative study of a bibliographic nature that aims to understand importance of rural education, as well as how science is taught in schools in the context of rural education. Rural education plays an important role in the advancement of rural communities, going beyond the mere transmission of knowledge, promoting the integral development of people living in rural areas. Social movements have an important role in demanding the right to education for rural people, resulting in laws that guarantee access to quality education for these people. Investing in rural education not only offers knowledge, but also favors the strengthening of local traditions, boosts the economy, empowers communities, preserves cultural identities, boosts sustainable development and offers a better quality of life for these people. Thus, it was found that science teaching in rural schools must guarantee the transmission and systematization of knowledge, as well as the preservation of regional and local culture, since scientific knowledge is intrinsically linked to different social, cultural, and cultural contexts. specifically in the rural context.
