description We present the preliminary results of the project titled “Comprehension of the environmental pollution problem by the use of agrochemical products through the environmental education”, which is being developed at the Institución Educativa Técnica la Libertad campus Peña de Aguilas, in the municipality of Samacá, Department of Boyacá. The prioritized investigation problem is located, on one hand, in the identification of a culture of indiscriminate use of agrochemical products in the community from sixty years ago until now and, on the other hand, in the absence of academic processes from the educational institution above that involve the comprehension of environmental problems inside their territory. The guiding question of the process is: “How to contribute in the comprehension of the environmental pollution problem by the indiscriminate use of agrochemical products in Vereda Peña de Aguilas in the municipality of Samacá, through a pedagogical proposal?” The project is performed under the socio critical paradigm, with a qualitative approach and Investigation–Action research type, with a sample of nine students of the fifth grade from the previously mentioned educational institution. During the first phase, an exploration was made on the conceptions installed in the students about environment, environmental problems and agrochemical products, through a questionary; this showed that the conceptions are located in two tendencies: the first one with a naturalist vision where the man is excluded from nature, and the second one with an anthropocentric vision where the man is separated or set apart from nature.

Se presentan los resultados preliminares del proyecto titulado “Comprensión problema de contaminación ambiental por el uso de agroquímicos a través de la Educación Ambiental”, el cual se desarrolla en la Institución Educativa Técnica la Libertad, sede Peña de Águilas, del municipio de Samacá, departamento de Boyacá. El problema de investigación priorizado se ubica, por un lado, en la identificación de una cultura de uso indiscriminado de los agroquímicos en la comunidad desde hace sesenta años, y, por otro, en la ausencia de procesos académicos que, desde la Institución Educativa, involucren la comprensión de problemáticas ambientales de su territorio. La pregunta orientadora del proceso es “¿Cómo contribuir en la comprensión del problema de contaminación ambiental por el uso indiscriminado de agroquímicos en la vereda Peña de Águilas del municipio de Samacá, mediante una propuesta pedagógica?” El proyecto se lleva a cabo bajo el paradigma socio-crítico, con enfoque cualitativo y tipo de investigación Investigación-Acción, con una muestra de nueve estudiantes pertenecientes al grado quinto de la institución antes mencionada. Durante la primera fase se hizo una exploración de las concepciones instaladas en los estudiantes sobre ambiente, problemática ambiental y agroquímicos, a través de un cuestionario; esto permitió evidenciar que las concepciones se ubicaron en dos tendencias, la primera con una visión naturalista donde se excluye al hombre de la naturaleza, y la segunda con una visión antropocentrista que ubica al hombre separado de la naturaleza.
