The teaching of botany is a fundamental tool to strengthen awareness of the use,
management and conservation. The development of teaching activities in Spaces
Non-Formal (ENFs) Amazon can provide significant learning processes for teaching
botany, valuing biodiversity of regional plants and thus contributing to the formation
of an environmental design. The research in this chapter aimed to diagnose through
PPC, questionnaire to teachers and students, the perception of botanical relationship
and environment in the construction of environmental design. The study was
conducted at the Federal Institute of Education Science and Technology of the
Amazon / IFAM through interviews with 49 students from the 2nd, 6th and 8th
periods of Morphology disciplines of Superior Plant and Superior Plant Physiology,
and 04 teachers, target the course of Biological Sciences Degree, checking botany
and environmental design and the methods used by teachers for teaching botany.
Later, there was an intervention by activity developed in ENFs. Research has
indicated that the botanical knowledge developed in ENFs stimulate learning
differently in the traditional way, demystifying the botany as difficult to understand as
well as raise environmental design as a tool for maintaining balanced environment.
