Eco Inovação e cidadania digital: desenvolvimento de aplicativo utilizando a metodologia Challenge-Based Learning

Abstract

We live in a time when human activities have changed dramatically biodiversity and the values it offe, we also live in the “information age”, where a deluge of information that is generated from digital technologies. More of 5 (five) billion people have access to cell phones, with a proportion each larger, with increasingly sophisticated features such as cameras, microphone, Global Positioning (GPS), online data storage and transfer. With the COVID-19 Pandemic How People Empower More Than Ever Connected to Innovation technology, local, global and online community issues. This research has as objective to develop a platform based on stimulating environmental perception of users with green spaces, enabling the visualization of herbaceous and native shrubs of the cerrado flora closer to its geographic location through of a mobile app called EcocerradoApp. After application publication on Google Play held in June 2021, 26 users were captured and sharing 35 records, where you hear interactions with comments, viewing profile, likes and shares. However, it is observed that most records there is no urban perimeter and mainly popular species of great acceptance by the population, in this case the yellow ipe and the pink ipe. With the thought of the most diverse forms of interrelationships of the human being, enabling a remarkable experience with approaching green spaces, understanding that environmental education (EE) can occur in all places, as well as the technology that in digital culture is ubiquitous one expects promote the preservation and environmental conservation of green spaces with participation individual and / or collective of the academic community and society in general. Contributing with the awareness of the allowed causes, allowing for dialogue, encouraging the circulation of information about the environment and preservation of resources natural activities, organizing activities that aid in learning as a means of promoting social and arousing interest in actions on environmental issues.
