Educação da sensibilidade e morfologia urbana interpretações de paisagens das ruas comerciais em Delmiro Gouveia - AL

Abstract

The motivation behind this research, focusing on Urban Morphology in the classroom, arose from the researcher's review of the literature on the topic in various events and conferences, where it was observed that most studies addressed Urban Morphology within the academic and scientific research contexts, with a lack of work introducing this topic in the educational field. This inspired the researcher to address Urban Morphology in the classroom. The objective of this study is to understand how urban forms contribute to the development of perceptual sensitivity among high school students regarding aesthetics and symbolic meanings found in consumer landscapes in commercial streets: Rua da Independência, Avenida Presidente Castelo Branco, and Avenida Floriano Peixoto in Delmiro Gouveia. The research followed a methodological approach based on phenomenology and the interpretation of students' personal experiences. Therefore, the focus of this study is on the descriptions provided by the students who participated in the research, regarding their experiences in the classroom and primarily in the field. The research was conducted at Luiz Augusto de Azevedo Menezes School, with two first-year classes of high school. The research period at the school lasted from November 17, 2022, to April 13, 2023. The study demonstrated the possibility of implementing the topic of Urban Morphology in the classroom, obtaining satisfactory results that confirm the benefits for high school students, enhancing their perceptions of Urban Form in consumer spaces along the three streets in Delmiro Gouveia.
