Resumen en inglés

The balance of the environment is fundamental for all the internal processes that arise within it, that is why the human being having a greater reasoning and ability to carry out something, must be the example to consolidate that homeostasis from all possible points, which is why this work is based on analyzing how a teaching strategy (TACA) supported by other elements (subject, life, pedagogy) of suvidagogy improves the knowledge about environmental ethics of ninth grade students at the Camilo Torres Educational Institution, contributing to the promotion of new environmental values in the students and making them more conscious, critical and reflective people regarding the moral and ethical way of living in their environment. The research was developed under an interpretative paradigm, with a qualitative approach, supported by a case study methodological design, the techniques chosen for data collection were the semi-structured interview and participant observation. It was found that most of the students had no knowledge of environmental ethics; however, to respond to this category, they contextualized with examples of environmental problems. On the other hand, the students developed texts (stories and essays) with the structure of the didactic strategy (TACA) where they wrote based on lived experiences, giving certain products different literary touches and with a range of environmental ethical criticality, demonstrating the effectiveness of the didactic strategy, since it was able to improve the knowledge and actions of the students.
