PATO, Claudia; SA, Lais Mourão  e  CATALAO, Vera Lessa. Mapeamento de tendências na produção acadêmica sobre educação ambiental. Educ. Rev. [online]. 2009, vol.25, n.03, pp.213-233. ISSN 0102-4698.

This paper was aimed at setting the stage research in Environmental Education - EE in the annual meetings of the National Association of Graduate Studies and Research in Education between 2003 and 2007, following requests from the area working group (WG-22). Our goal was to elucidate thematic, theoretical and methodological trends in academic research in EE, and to understand the diversity of this research field and pedagogical action. For the analysis we considered 66 papers presented in the five meetings. The results were articulated considering: thematic evolution; timeline regarding theme, theory and methodology diversification; spatial location; and the connections between environmental, educational and EE. It was evident a concentration of production in the southern and southeastern areas of Brazil, the prevalence of a socioenvironmental approach and a critical view of EE over the years, as well as the emphasis on formal education and qualitative methodology.

Palavras-chave : Environmental Education; Research trends in Environmental Education; Socioenvironmental Field.
