The "Knowledge Didactics of Social and Natural Environment I" is a subject that aims to reflect on the foundations of the area of discovery of the environment in children's education, establishing links with the cultural disciplines of reference such as didactics of the experimental sciences and the social sciences. The aim is to develop didactic criteria based on a knowledge of the curriculum of the area of discovery of the environment, the theories, models and principles on teaching and learning in children's education, and on a conception of the natural world and social oriented to sustainability.
Training objectives:

3. Analyze the child education curriculum corresponding to the area of discovery of the environment.
4. To know the most relevant theories, models and principles of teaching and learning of the experimental sciences and social sciences in children's education. 5. Analyze various didactic situations that occur in the children's school and identify the purposes and contents of the experimental and social sciences that work on it, valuing its adequacy.
1. Fundamentals and perspectives of educational intervention in the area of discovery of the environment, from the perspective of the reference sciences.
1.1. Cultural relevance of the experimental and social sciences to understand the world today.
1.2. Theories, models and principles of teaching and learning in children's education.
1.3. Education for sustainability, equal opportunity and global citizenship in the children's school.

The teaching methodology is centered on three important pillars:
(a) to offer students opportunities to acquire a direct contact experience with the natural and social environment and with their educational possibilities for the stage of childhood education through outputs and didactic laboratory activities;
(b) design contexts so that students develop new ways of looking at educational work around the social and natural environment;
(c) encourage students to read articles and readings and reflect on key ideas that are relevant cultural milestones.
This subject intends to provide the basics for the next subject "Knowledge of the Natural and Social Environment II" and emphasize the construction of the ways to look necessary to understand the foundations, scope,
and educational possibilities of educational work through the area of discovery of the natural and social environment at the stage of infant education. The type of activities designed include master classes to present points of view,
field trips to get to know the surroundings, work in the laboratory and the seminar to deepen in the observation and direct experimentation of natural and social phenomena, and work in small group for reflection around lectures
and didactic proposals.
The field trip, both in the natural environment and in the social environment, will be at a museum or science center or other institutions in the schedule established by the institution (morning or afternoon).
The visit is compulsory and can cost up to 10 euros.
