Novo olhar para espaços na Educação: Proposta de escola para ensino fundamental em Santa Maria - RS

Abstract

Public education at the national level is in crisis as it has high rates of repetition, school dropout and lack of identification with its students. In this way, the present work has the objective of carrying out the proposal of a new headquarters to the Municipal School of Elementary Education Tenente João Pedro Menna Barreto, located in Santa Maria - RS. Throughout this, the problems of standardized school architectural projects for different contexts are addressed, as well as the lack of relationship with more promising pedagogical methods. The methodology was based on a literature review on the main pedagogical theories existing in the history of education, on the evolution of school spaces at the national level until the current application of standardized solutions in the infrastructure of the public education network. A technical visit and case studies on school buildings are also presented, in order to investigate different strategies for manipulating the educational environment. Also, studies were carried out on the current school headquarters, its surroundings and research on the desires of the current users of the institution, as a basis for proposing the new building. In this way, the proposal was based on the reintegration of the school in a land adjacent to its current location, providing the necessary physical space to meet its demands and improving its relationship with the surroundings.
