Environment, Representations, Obstacles, Goals-obstaclesAbstract
This work aims to identify the representations that students in a class of 6th grade of elementary school have on the environment and, from them, draw your changes and goals aimed to overcome some obstacles. Was based on the concept of epistemological obstacles of Gaston Bachelard and goals from Jean-Pierre Astolfi obstacles. Is characterized as qualitative research, with data collected in seven meetings in a public school, using techniques such as questionnaires, observation and visits to non-institutionalized and non-institutionalized formal spaces. The results indicate that the initial representations of students about the environment turn only for the care and love of nature, as not littering and taking care of animals. After conducting the meetings, it was noted the predominance of conservationist thought, but with small expansions on the idea of the environment and its relations with society, with emphasis on the interdependence between man and nature. Highlights the importance of activities centered on the idea of understanding obstacles, which in turn enables the development of goals, obstacles, although the conceptual changes can be tough and slow, the survey showed.Downloads

Ethical guidelines for journal publication
The REMOA is committed to ensuring ethics in publication and quality of articles.
Conformance to standards of ethical behavior is therefore expected of all parties involved: Authors, Editors, Reviewers, and the Publisher.
In particular,
Authors: Authors should present an objective discussion of the significance of research work as well as sufficient detail and references to permit others to replicate the experiments. Fraudulent or knowingly inaccurate statements constitute unethical behavior and are unacceptable. Review articles should also be objective, comprehensive, and accurate accounts of the state of the art. The authors should ensure that their work is entirely original works, and if the work and/or words of others have been used, this has been appropriately acknowledged. Plagiarism in all its forms constitutes unethical publishing behavior and is unacceptable. Submitting the same manuscript to more than one journal concurrently constitutes unethical publishing behavior and is unacceptable. Authors should not submit articles describing essentially the same research to more than one journal. The corresponding author should ensure that there is a full consensus of all co-authors in approving the final version of the paper and its submission for publication.
Editors: Editors should evaluate manuscripts exclusively on the basis of their academic merit. An editor must not use unpublished information in the editor's own research without the express written consent of the author. Editors should take reasonable responsive measures when ethical complaints have been presented concerning a submitted manuscript or published paper.
Reviewers: Any manuscripts received for review must be treated as confidential documents. Privileged information or ideas obtained through peer review must be kept confidential and not used for personal advantage. Reviews should be conducted objectively, and observations should be formulated clearly with supporting arguments, so that authors can use them for improving the paper. Any selected referee who feels unqualified to review the research reported in a manuscript or knows that its prompt review will be impossible should notify the editor and excuse himself from the review process. Reviewers should not consider manuscripts in which they have conflicts of interest resulting from competitive, collaborative, or other relationships or connections with any of the authors, companies, or institutions connected to the papers.
