Environmental education seeks a communion with the fundamental principles of participation, citizenship, autonomy and sustainability, aiming for education that, in its epistemological and methodological principles, gives priority to shaping people who are qualified to face the social-environmental challenges which, in many cases, are a product of their own action. There are several ways of promoting environmental education within society, and it is no different at school. According to curricular parameters, environmental education should permeate the curriculum of all school subjects; therefore Physical Education also has the duty of looking into this topic. In order to achieve that purpose, this work sought to teach environmental education within physical education by promoting nature walks. The work endeavored to identify the specificities carried out in environmental education and the way that physical education is seen, mentioning the possibilities of this particular school subject that aid in the learning of certain contents: in this specific case environmental education and its possible relationship with physical education as a manner of complementing one other by means of nature walks. Within this perspective, this work investigates the effectiveness of this activity and its possible benefits. In order to conduct this research two class groups were chosen from different schools, one of which carried out the nature walk activity whereas the other did not. Both groups were given a questionnaire with topics related to the environment, and a comparison was made of the perception of environmental questions between the two. It was possible to infer that nature walks are an effective method of teaching environmental education: despite observing that, as far as environmental awareness is concerned, students from both groups had similar views, in the behavioral question regarding environment, the class that undertook the proposed activity presented more significant results.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.
