Percepção ambiental dos discentes de agriculta do IFPI, Campus Cocal, sobre a diversidade biológica do litoral Piauiense

Abstract

This work aims to analyze the relationship that students of the IFPI Agriculture course, Campus Cocal, have with the environment, especially with the biodiversity of the Piauían - Piauí coast. Semi structured questionnaires were used to address questions about student profile, Conservation Unit, endangered species and environmental education, in addition to the intervention called "Science classroom" where it exhibited specimens of fish, cetaceans and marine reptiles. The data showed that before the intervention, most of the students had no knowledge about Conservation Units, as well as about threatened animals, but they have a good relation with the environment and consider their protection important. The "Science classroom" was positive for disseminating scientific knowledge about the fauna diversity of the Piauían – Piauí coast. The research reveals the importance of the continuation of activities of this kind, aiming at the formation of multipliers of the technical-scientific concepts for the conservation and protection of the environment
