Projetando práticas de ensino-aprendizagem: o design no cotidiano, ação e reflexão do professor da educação básica

Abstract

Some authors from Brazil and abroad have already traced the paths connecting Design and Education, just as some schools have already adopted design, either as a methodology – so that teachers can prepare their classes – or as a curricular component – in the form of a project which students are involved. However, this dissertation doesn’t speak about the specialist/professional designer at school, but of the teacher-designer of teaching-learning practices, that is, design as a process of thought and developing activities and managing spaces. Based on a bibliographical research and an interview with 6 public school basic education teachers, design was conceptualized as a thought process, and it was investigated whether in fact this process is inherent to every human being – or in this case to all teachers.
