Abstract

Citizen science is an approach with huge potential in the study of biodiversity patterns in climate change scenarios. Its potential has also been recognized to contribute to the development of climate change education at earlier ages. This study aimed to investigate the perceptions of in-service teachers about the contribution of citizen science to climate change education. Seven teachers from 10 different elementary school classes participated in this study. Through a mixed methodology, data was collected using questionnaires, semi-structured interviews and participant observation. The results revealed that teachers recognized the potential of citizen science for their own pedagogical practice and students´ developed skills. This study reinforces the importance of teachers’ involvement in citizen science projects. It also stresses the importance of incorporating citizen science projects with an investigative approach in the school context for students and teachers to develop skills.
