Percepção de educadores sobre a importância das práticas de reutilização de móveis e objetos como proposta sustentável de planejamento de design de ambientes em âmbito escolar

Abstract

The work was developed to evaluate the perception of educators from the Elementary School network in the municipality of São Domingos do Azeitão - Maranhão, on practices of reuse of furniture and objects, as a sustainable proposal for planning environment design in the school environment. The research involved teachers from two public elementary schools located in the village of Santa Teresa. After collecting and evaluating the data, using questionnaires, the Environmental Education activities were carried out through the practice of reforming and reusing furniture and objects destined for the garbage and making educational folders, being worked through social networks such as WhatsApp, Instagram and the Google Meet meetings app. With this, it was noticed that teachers understand and support the use of reused furniture and objects as a sustainable proposal for planning environment design in the school environment, however, the lack of continuing education to work content in the area was observed. Thus, on the one hand, they corroborate the direct relationship between the reuse of furniture and objects and Environmental Education actions in elementary schools as a primordial place to encourage and educate future generations about the importance of sustainable and ecologically correct practices, but still it is necessary to search for more knowledge to enhance these educational practices
