A escola como extensão da comunidade - anteprojeto arquitetônico de um Centro Educacional Comunitário Unificado em Maceió

Abstract

Improving the quality of education has always been a goal to be pursued almost constantly. In Brazil, this search becomes even more pronounced, given that in some locations in the country the quality of education still presents numbers considered below expectations. In view of this, the discussion about the mechanisms that may contribute to the advancement of education deals with the most diverse themes, and one of these themes is linked to School Architecture and how it can contribute to the improvement of the learning environment. The objective of this work is to propose the creation of a Unified Community Educational Center, a space that may help to overcome some specific difficulties of education in Alagoas, for that it makes use of the concept of community school, a building that presents itself as a central hub that goes beyond teaching, as it provides a multitude of spaces for the community to use. Throughout the construction of this work, several theoretical references guided the proposition of spaces, as well as aspects related to the performance of constructions, guaranteeing quality to the built environment. The proposed project presents a diversity of uses and the possibility of more direct interaction between the user and the environment, strengthening the relationship between the student and the school and between the school and the surroundings in which it operates. In addition to proposing to be a starting point for the creation of a program of schools that can be replicated, meeting the demands of different locations.
