The expansion of scientific and academic knowledge of sustainable practices such
as composting is a tool for sustainability, and the dissemination of its use has been
carried out in different ways. Thus, the use of the internet emerges as an alternative to
publicize these initiatives, as it provides quick access to contributions from various
disciplines and educational experiments. This contributes to the scientific dissemination, since it increases access to knowledge and understanding of the environment.
However, without the interdisciplinary approach, it is not possible to study the interrelationships existing between living beings or to open the world of education to the
community calling its members to action (Bueno and Arruda 2014).
When working with the composting technique there is an involvement and great
application of concepts from different areas of knowledge. Research, such as the one
that is presented here, seeks, classifies and organizes a series of scientific dissemination materials, in this case, specifically about composting, is a way of monitoring
the evolution and the positive contribution for the dissemination of such important
knowledge.
5 Methods
The study deals with documentary research, involving three methodological steps.
The first, for the preparation of the cadastral form and the documentary survey
focused on the proposed theme. The second included the reading, interpretation,
description, ordering and systematization of the information obtained in the previous
stage. The third one was focused on the analysis of the evolution of the material on
the subject.
In order to search for the materials, the Portal of Periodicals of Capes, Google
and Google Scholar were consulted using the following keywords, in Portuguese:
“borra de café”, “compostagem”, “vermicompostagem” and “divulgação científica”,
in English “Coffee grounds”, “composting”, “vermicomposting” and “scientific dissemination” and in Spanish “borra de café”, “compostaje”, “vermicompostaje” and
“divulgación científica” to evaluate the period covered by the materials.
The results of the search were ordered in tables in Microsoft Excel, the material
being classified in manuals and compost booklets. The search was carried out in the
Portuguese, English and Spanish languages, thus analyzing how the difference in language can exchange information about how the technique of scientific dissemination
is carried out in each culture, concerning the theme.
6 Results and Discussion
Considering the search criteria, 48 materials were obtained between manuals and
compost booklets, which were covered during the period from 1995 to 2018 (Table 1).
