RESUMO

The educative project "How to live well with the animals" was introduced in the Educational Units of the São Paulo Municipal District, in 2002, destined to diffusion and promotion of the concept of responsible pets ownership, in special dogs and cats and since then, it has worked with teachers of 1.605 schools of the city. The current study was written to analyze the dynamics of the educational process, to verify the impact of the used methodology and the role of the teacher as a multiplier in the repass of the information that make the project offered in the year of 2008. At the first moment the teachers evaluated (G1) and in the sequence the multiplier teachers (G2) in the respective teaching units. The evaluations were made with the use of open questions and for the analysis of the answers obtained they used the test of McNemar. The previous knowledge of the teachers about responsible possession of pets showed itself not satisfactory about the main cares with animals, diseases and its preventions, cares before and after aggression, method of reproductive control and its justifications. The course has promoted the acquisition of knowledge about the themes treated, but it was not enough to guarantee the action of the qualified teachers as the instruments for repassing the technical information of the project in their teaching units. Mechanisms to follow-up the performance of the multiplex teachers in the working units must be created. It is recommended that the public policies be established to facilitate the educational activities in order to diminish the problems that make unviable the application of the theory in the practice.
