Representaciones escolares del clima en el paisaje fluvial del río Clariano

Abstract

Knowledge of the relationship between climate and landscape coexists with the difficulties inherent in the school environment. To find out what happens in their teaching, the social representations of a 1st ESO student are analyzed using the Evocation 2005 instrument and the pictorial records. The case study on a river landscape at a local level confirms the idealization of the landscape and the low presence of the climate in the representations of the students, this together with the difficulties of the teachers in their disciplinary knowledge and their practice, urges us to break the traditions and school routines to better face the explanations of the environmental transformations.
