A arquitetura do aprender: reforma e ampliação da Escola Polivalente.

Abstract

The objective of this work was to propose, at the preliminary study level, a reform and extension of the School Senador Argemiro de Figueiredo, or Polivalente. For this, it is necessary to understand the social dynamics that schools in Brazil and in the world go through. Schools are still being built as if they build prisons, closed, dictators, and that prioritize the individual and competitive growth of children who only seek places to have fun and learn. This work seeks to question the standardization of projects as a way to speed up the production of more schools, without thinking about the reality of the local community, the terrain or any other important condition for doing so. The needs of the schools in the country are very evident and it is necessary that all the agents that act in them do their part to create a healthy and rich environment for the learning, combining pedagogy, didactics and architecture. The project has transformed the school's greatest needs into changes in space, bringing more movement and dynamics.
