Learning situations for the treatment of the Life Task

Abstract

Within the framework of actions aimed at environmental education for sustainable development, on April 25, 2017, the Council of Ministers approved the State Plan for confronting climate change in the Republic of Cuba, called Tarea Vida (Task Life).  This measure was adopted by the Cuban State for the confrontation of climate change. Consequently, this article focuses on offering learning situations for the treatment of the Task Life in the teaching of Biology, in order to increase knowledge and encourage responsible behaviors that contribute to mitigate the effects of climate change. The diagnosis carried out made it possible to determine the needs of teachers and students in this regard and with the intention of transforming the educational reality. In this sense, learning situations were proposed to contribute to the treatment of the Life Task and its relationship with biological contents.
