Devido ao aumento populacional e dos impactos ambientais, e ainda da carência de informações que envolvem a destinação e o reaproveitamento correto dos resíduos, principalmente o orgânico doméstico, a Educação Ambiental (EA) surge como instrumento pedagógico na construção de novos valores. Nesse contexto, o projeto “Brincando de compostar e aprendendo a reciclar” alcançou 130 alunos do Ensino Fundamental I, de 3 escolas públicas do município de João Monlevade, tendo como objetivo a conscientização e desenvolvimento de um olhar crítico em relação à interação entre o homem e o meio em que vive, dando ênfase a conceitos e valores sustentáveis. Trata-se de um projeto de EA em que foram abordados os aspectos dos diferentes tipos de resíduos (secos e orgânicos), a destinação sustentável do lixo, a compostagem, a coleta seletiva, e o ponto culminante do projeto foi a construção de composteiras para o direcionamento correto dos resíduos orgânicos do ambiente escolar. O projeto teve boa receptividade, por meio da participação e comprometimento dos alunos e professores. Como resultado, as escolas envolvidas obtiveram boas implicações no que tange à compreensão dos benefícios da compostagem para o meio ambiente, além do adubo de boa qualidade que foi posteriormente utilizado em suas hortas e jardins. Ademais, pode-se concluir que os objetivos foram alcançados de forma satisfatória, uma vez que se trata de um projeto de baixo custo e com potencialidade de trazer benefícios à saúde, ao meio ambiente e à gestão de resíduos sólidos, além de aproximar os alunos dos cuidados com a natureza.
He noise pollution, followed by water and air pollution, is the environmental problem that affects a greater number of people on the planet, which leads to the search for measures of sound attenuation to avoid the negative effects that may cause in human health. Exposure to noise at levels above the recommended can cause changes in school activities, such as loss of concentration, insomnia, stress, among others. These symptoms may interfere with the ability to perform tasks, thus compromising the school performance. This study aimed to evaluate the acoustic conditions in classrooms of two schools in the city of João Monlevade, Minas Gerais, selected according to the geographic location, being both schools of the state public education network. In addition, the investigation shows the effects of these noises on the day to day of the school community. Acoustic measurements were made inside the classrooms in order to determine the level of noise to which students and teachers are exposed in their daily lives. Subsequently, a questionnaire was applied with the purpose of obtaining information on the knowledge of the theme and on the health of the school community. Finally, a lecture was given to students and teachers of schools, with the aim of bringing information about noise pollution and their impacts on human and environmental health. As for the results, the intensity of the sound pressure level collected in the schools was excessively above the recommended, with perceptible consequences for its users.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
