It aims at identifying and characterizing the Thinking Styles that these teachers have about biodiversity in light of Fleckism epistemology. The present study, a qualitative approach, similar to the Case Study, was attended by 22 teachers from Elementary and Secondary public schools in the city of Igarapé-Miri/Pa. I utilized the methodology of Focal Group as a tool for the construction of empiricism in two Working Groups accomplished during the I Colloquium on Biodiversity, promoted by the Postgraduate Program in Science and Mathematics and for the Group of Studies and Research in Patrimonial Environmental Education. The analysis of this study is anchored in some analytical devices of Discourse Analysis (Orlandi, 2012), Discourse of Collective Subject (LEFÉVRE; LEFÉVRE, 2005) and the Fleckism categories (Fleck, 2010), as analytical tools. For this analyzes, the data were categorized according to approximations and similarities and commonalities of speeches. For identification and characterization of the Thinking Styles presented in the teachers' speeches, I used four elements that constitute the TS, based on Fleckism referential, which are: 1) how to see, understand and realize; 2) Body of knowledge and practices; 3) Sharing by the collective; 4) stylized language. The results indicate the existence of three Thinking Styles on Biodiversity: Biodiversity in the ecological view, Biodiversity as economic potential and Biodiversity as environmental patrimony, being it considered a style in transition, on the grounds that it begins to be thought and designed from the activities of the Colloquium. The analysis also elucidated the conceptions of teachers about the STS interrelationships. These are based on Salvationist perspective of Science, in education for citizenship and as technological resources. The TS in transition "Biodiversity as environmental patrimony" comprises a thinking and an action more critical, because it incorporates environmental issues, social, economic and political aspects in an interdependent relationship and interrelationships among living beings, once its critical dimension is an important element in the STS and Patrimonial Environmental approaches.Acesso AbertoCiênciaBiologiaBiodiversidadeEducação ambientalAbordagem ciência, tecnologia e sociedadeEducação em ciênciasDissertaçãoCNPQ::CIENCIAS HUMANAS::EDUCACAO
