El aula como escenario de innovación docente 2.0

Resumo

Since 2007, the Research Group in History of Architecture IALA of the University of A Coruña has been experimenting and developing a set of active methodologies in teaching innovation through the subject Introduction to Architecture (Degree in Architecture Studies) on the study, analysis and understanding of the architectural space using the classroom as a learning tool. Confronted with the traditional distribution of an active speaker faced with a passive student-receiver, the reconfiguration of the classroom based on the work material used in each class have become major issues. The student and their learning resources are placed at the center of the pedagogical attention and the architectural space, considering the rest of the learning resources and the teacher himself, as peripherals from the physical point of view. In the experience carried out during these years in the Superior Technical School of Architecture of the University of A Coruña students are asked to use the classroom space as a space for their first project experience, which has to be reconfigured progressively during the course, to the time that relates spatial ideas to the functional and constructive problems inherent in architecture.
