The examined teaching/learning situations are drawn from Quebec primary school textbooks. The analysis seeks to identify the socio-spatial dynamics taken into account when addressing environmental problems. The results show that despite the presented connection between the broad area of learning Consumer Habits and teaching/learning situations in Science and Technology, these situations remain essentially disciplinary and call upon very little knowledge relative to sociospatial dynamics. Territorial, political, and economic dimensions are therefore largely evacuated from environmental reflections.</span></p> ER -
