Estrategia didáctica orientada en los principios del aprendizaje por descubrimiento de Brunner, para incentivar la conciencia ambiental en los estudiantes de segundo semestre de Licenciatura en Pedagogía Infantil de la Universidad de Pamplona.

Abstract

The present investigation was aimed at presenting a didactic proposal to encourage environmental awareness in the students of the bachelor’s in child Pedagogy at the University of Pamplona; issue that arose from the need for appropriation of environmental issues by the students. For this purpose, it was started from a diagnostic stage, where the degree of environmental awareness of the students was determined from their own perspective and from the teachers' point of view. In the same way, and through direct observation, some environmental policies of the University were unveiled, such as the use of paper and the general considerations in the curricular meshes. The analysis of the information was carried out in accordance with the proposals of the mixed research, since it was done from the qualitative to the quantitative, which allowed to establish that there are serious flaws in the management of the environmental issue within the University, within of which it is necessary to mention the lack of a defined policy in this subject, as well as the little disclosure of the plans and programs that are developed. Based on the above, a proposal was designed that allows students, teachers and administrators to recognize the strong and negative impact of man on the environment and take the necessary actions to reduce this impact.
