A visão do bioma cerrado no ensino fundamental do município de Goiânia e sua relação com os livros didáticos utilizados como instrumento de ensino. Polyphonía, Goiânia, v. 21, n. 1, p. 317-337, jan./jun. 2010. Disponível em: https://www.revistas.ufg.br/sv/article/view/317/9938.http://repositorio.bc.ufg.br/handle/ri/18024Schools as a teaching tool were also evaluated and related to the students’ perceptions. There was no difference between public and private schools in the number of correct answers per questionnaire. Among private schools, the most frequently cited category of the biome was the description of the Cerrado as having small trees with twisted trunks, while for public schools it was an appreciation of the biome. An analysis of the textbooks found that the most frequently addressed topics are: soil, vegetation and geographic location. Conservation and biodiversity are treated superficially. Most of the books restrict the Cerrado to central Brazil and the definition of the climate of the biome is sometimes confusing. In the textbooks the difference between Cerrado and Savanna is ambiguous and the theme of fire in the Cerrado is rarely addressed.porAcesso AbertoBiomaCerradoPercepçãoInformaçãoAlunosBiomePerceptionInformationStudentsArtigo10.5216/rp.v21i1.16307e- 2238-8850
