Abstract

Teachers must be aware of the importance of their task, helping and facilitating the 2030 Agenda to become a reality in the daily lives of students. To do this, it is required to put into practice methodological strategies that favor Education for Sustainable Development in the classrooms. The general objective of this work is to analyze the degree of knowledge and application of these methodologies by the teachers of a municipality in the Marina Baja region, in the province of Alicante. To do this, a questionnaire is prepared through which information related to the knowledge and use of certain methodological strategies is collected. Likewise, a correlation is made of the information obtained based on the stage in which teaching is taught and the years of teaching experience. The data obtained through the application of the questionnaire indicate that there is little use of certain methodological strategies that favor Education for Sustainable Development, which is why the incorporation, in the initial and ongoing training of teachers, of strategies that allow a greater and better treatment of sustainability in classrooms.
