This paper describes movements of collective research carried out in a discipline developed in post-graduate programs in Education (PPGEC; PPGEA; PPGEDU) at the Universidade Federal do Rio Grande - FURG, located in Rio Grande, RS, Brazil. It focuses on the exercise that refers to the methodology called Discursive Textual Analysis, based on a corpus that consisted of abstracts of dissertations defended in the post-graduate program in Environmental Education at FURG from 2014 to 2018. This paper aims at introducing description as a phenomenological, attitude and at showing how to make an analytical movement based on the eidethical reduction of a category. The question that guided the study was: Which is this Environmental Education that shows itself in abstracts of dissertations of the post-graduate program in Environmental Education (PPGEA)? From the descending movement of abstract description to the movement towards the concept of problematization - one of the categories that emerged from the analytical process -, an ascending movement was carried out. It enabled interpretation and dialogue with theoreticians in different epistemologies that address “problematization” in distinct senses.

Keywords : Qualitative research; Phenomenological description; Abstracts.
