The theme of socioecological sustainability is limited in higher education, but it is essential for teachers to face ecosocial crises. The study aimed to investigate the continuing education of university professors of Pedagogy in Natal-RN, Brazil, regarding the approach of socioecological sustainability in the classroom. The methodology adopted consisted of a qualitative, applied research, with a case study design, and theoretically based; it also followed procedures of documental and curricular analysis with the Degree in Pedagogy and survey of primary data from the application of an online questionnaire with 15 professors of the higher course, which was submitted to data and content analysis. The voices of 15 teachers revealed a tiny approach to the ecosocial challenges in educational practice. Due to the absence of this approach in the higher education course of Pedagogy for several reasons, in summary, the study made it possible to build a course of continuing education for teachers through the insertion of learning based on gamification, with the objective of supporting the formation and construction of a socio-ecological knowledge in the face of socio-ecological crises through gamified elements in order to carry out a significant and innovative learning, forming socially critical professionals in the face of dynamic learning in teacher training.
