Education of 21st century: A proposal of flipped classroom strategy to teach Soil Biology
25/Nov/2024
ABSTRACT Flipped Classroom (FC) approach has gained widespread acceptance across various education levels, particularly in higher education settings. Flipped Classroom represents a method employed to stimulate student learning, enhance academic performance, and foster student motivation and engagement. This approach involves the utilization of pre-class materials such as recorded lectures and multimedia resources for student review, while class time is dedicated to exercises, projects, or discussions. Numerous studies have documented enhanced learning outcomes among students of mathematics and science through FC […]
Analysis of Potential for Linear Erosion in the Cerrado Biome Using Morphopedology
12/Jun/2017
ABSTRACT The Cerrado is a vegetation complex with a wide variety of phytophysiognomies, and sustainable management is essential for maintaining biodiversity. Morphopedology is a tool that can assist in developing plans for control of soil and land use, especially in evaluating the potential of soil erosion processes. This technique allows landscape units considered “homogeneous” to be distinguished, as a result of interaction between physiographic conditions. The aim of this study was to evaluate potential for erosion in São Miguel do […]
Institutional landmarks in Brazilian research on soil erosion: a historical overview
01/Dec/2013
The problem of soil erosion in Brazil has been a focus of agricultural scientific research since the 19th century. The aim of this study was to provide a historical overview of the institutional landmarks which gave rise to the first studies in soil erosion and established the foundations of agricultural research in Brazil. The 19th century and beginning of the 20th century saw the founding of a series of institutions in Brazil, such as Botanical Gardens, executive institutions, research institutes, […]
