Abstract
Este estudio descriptivo evaluó el conocimiento, percepción y disposición de los directores de escuelas privadas del municipio de Mayagüez para utilizar estrategias de Agroecología Urbana integradas a áreas académicas. Se desarrolló un instrumento de medición tipo cuestionario para recoger los datos. A raíz del análisis de los resultados se encontró que los directores que participaron fueron féminas (85%) con grado de maestría (100 %) que poseen un conocimiento de fracaso (46%) sobre temas relacionados a la agroecología. También, que están totalmente de acuerdo en utilizar la agroecología integrada a las áreas académicas y están completamente dispuestos a utilizar un currículo de ésta área. Además, completamente de acuerdo en contratar un maestro con especialidad en educación agrícola puesto que entienden que podría mejorar la motivación de los estudiantes. Se recomienda que se oriente a los directores sobre la existencia de los educadores agrícolas para que impartan agroecología en sus escuelas.
