Projeto tela verde: a problemática do lixo abordada por meio de recursos áudio-visuais. Enciclopédia Biosfera, Goiânia, v. 6, n. 9, p. 1-11, 2010.e- 2317-2606http://repositorio.bc.ufg.br/handle/ri/15619he Purpose of this paper is to perform a quantitative and qualitative study where the garbage problem is looked at within an environmental education framework. The following two documentary films in the “Tela Verde” project from the Ministry of Environment (MMA) were used: ”Geribabel” and “Caminho do Mundo”. Both films were shown to first year secondary students at a public school in Goiânia –GO, being followed by debates with a view to diagnosing the students’ level of understanding. The students then answered a questionnaire which supplied the data for the study. Results showed that 100% of the students knew that garbage is one of the main causes of environmental problems, and 90.32% of the students stated that the films had increased their awareness of the issue proving the validity of this methodology for environmental education since it presents a welcome change to the classroom routine, managing to attract and motivate students as well as contributing towards learning by stimulating interaction between monitor and student.porAcesso AbertoEducação ambientalDocumentárioSensibilizaçãoEnvironmental educationDocumentaryAwarenessArtigo
