Abstract(s)
O desperdício alimentar é hoje reconhecido como um dos principais problemas ambientais da
sociedade consumista em que vivemos. Por este motivo, diversos esforços têm sido realizados,
a nível nacional e internacional, para sensibilizar a população através de campanhas e da
integração do tema em projetos escolares. As instituições de ensino superior formadoras de
professores têm um papel fundamental no combate ao desperdício alimentar, que passa por
dinamizar ações de sensibilização e conceber recursos pedagógicos de apoio aos professores.
Aqui se relata o impacto de uma experiência de formação sobre o desperdício alimentar com
recurso a um jogo online no 1.º Ciclo do Ensino Básico. Os dados obtidos a partir de um
questionário, aplicado a 93 alunos e quatro professoras, permitiram verificar que o jogo online
promoveu a motivação e o interesse dos alunos, o que reforça a continuidade da aposta neste
tipo de recursos no campo da educação ambiental.
Food waste is now recognized as one of the main environmental problems of the consumer society in which we live. For this reason, various efforts have been made at the national and international levels to raise awareness through campaigns and school projects. Teacher Training Institutions have a fundamental role in promoting food waste reduction, which involves developing training sessions and designing pedagogical resources to support teachers. Here we report the impact of a training experience about the topic of food waste using an online game for students of the 1st Cycle of Basic Education. The data obtained from a questionnaire, applied to 93 students and four teachers, demonstrates that the online game promoted na increase of students’ motivation and interest, which reinforces the continuity of the use of this type of resources in the field of environmental education.
