Recognizing that academic publications on education and environmental education rarely reach school, our Research Group on Environmental Education (UNESP-Bauru) developed a collective study seeking to identify which sources of information basic education teachers use in their training process on environmental education. Our general aim was, having this information, to establish guidelines for our research publications to reach the schools, contributing, thus, to the inclusion of environmental education in this space. This study was based on qualitative approach, employing field research, and the data for analysis were collected through observations in schools and interviews with about three hundred teachers in 14 cities in São Paulo State central region. We present here our conclusions, specifically, the sources of information used by the teachers.
