Abstract
The main objective of this project is to investigate how active methodologies, based on
workshops with environmental themes, can help high school students to learn subject matter in the area
of the chemistry, physics and mathematics sciences and enhance their awareness of the importance of
the preservation of the planet. In this study, 13 schools were visited in 4 years. During this time they
participated in workshops that involved the use of residues to produce new materials, to provide
environmental education regarding the reuse of waste and concepts embedded in the chemistry, physics
and mathematics sciences. The results highlight that most of the students (98%) found the Mobile
Science project interesting, 97% enjoyed participating in the workshops. Regarding the content of the
workshops, 92% of the students answered positively; that is, the workshops were related and helped to
understand the exact sciences. The Mobile Science project is part of the Unisul ́s actions aligned to
sustainable development goals (SDGs), UN 2030 Agenda.
