El impacto del diseño del espacio y otras variables socio-físicas en el proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje

Resumo

Learning space is a common element in the whole teaching and learning process. Improving the understanding among the learning physical environment and student’s relationships, outcome and behaviour, can mean a large-scale cultural development by helping in the fight against rising inequality in recent years, exacerbated by the crisis. Moreover, it is necessary to take into account the longevity of educational buildings and the high economic cost for their rehabilitation or new construction, since the learning space should be able to readjust to the needs of users and teaching methodologies that arise in much shorter intervals than the durability of these edifications. This research project fits into the line of research Socio-educational inclusion and exclusion processes, more specifically in Equity, social change and sustainable development, by aiming to analyze how the design of the school environment influence the teaching-learning process. Thus, learning space function as a common factor that improves the quality of the learning process. We will analyze how teaching may be influenced by spatial organization, by detecting interferences or barriers of the space design in the learning process. For this purpose, quantitative and qualitative methodologies are used through techniques such as perception questionnaires, interviews and documentary analysis.
