ANALYSING UNIVERSITY STUDENT'S OPINIONS ABOUT ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION PROJECTS: A CASE STUDY THROUGH DOCUMENTARY METHOD
Mots-clés :
Environmental education, Educational models, Education for sustainable development, Community participation, Documentary analysisRésumé
Assessing an Environmental Education Project (EEP) is a critical and unavoidable stage in improving the processes implied for its development. In order to identify positive and negative aspects of a particular EEP, getting feedback from not involved external evaluators can contribute to enrich the vision. This research presents a qualitative approach based on a case study through the documentary method. The participants were 22 university students of the Degree of Environmental Sciences from Spain. They watched two short videos about the goals and activities of an EEP carried out in rural areas of Argentina and then wrote letters 500 words máximum lenght to the responsibles. The content analysis was performed by coding with three coders (Fleiss kappa = 0.62). The selected coded units were 175 and they were structured into 10 categories, grouped into 3 dimensions: educational models (53.6%), impact on the local community (29.8%) and scientific content on sustainable development (16.6%). Aspects were valued positively in their majority, especially with reference to an innovative, active, and practical pedagogical model and the importance of the social and cooperative perspective of the institutions. The most relevant negative aspect that was detected is the need for an integrated perspective when addressing the scientific content.
