: relatório de estágio

Abstract

This Master thesis was developed in the scope of the Master in Visual Arts Education for the 3rd cycle of Elementary School and High School, in an attempt to best address the concept of aesthetic experience and its relationship with pedagogy in general and focusing on the teaching dynamics and the learning of the visual arts. This report presents in the first chapter a theoretical component of the conceptual strategy exploring the main aspects of the affective and cognitive dimension of the aesthetic experience. The second chapter of the report focuses on the development of a didactic proposal exposing the teaching/learning strategies applied in the action field under the course of Arts. This work was implemented during the teaching internship at D. ª Maria II High School, at Braga. Drawing upon a literature review regarding the enjoyment of art in its affective and cognitive dimensions, this study also reflects on the role of art in its teaching context, considering the cultural diversity that school context involves. It is intended to show the role of aesthetic attitude as a fundamental and structural element in the project of leaning through art. The description of the pedagogic practice confirms the benefits obtained while providing for a vivid and dynamic teaching, valuing the interests of the students and promoting the learning through dynamic processes related to the aesthetic experience. This methodology includes the share of experience between both the students and the teacher and the process allows to live art though action, imagination, reflection and mostly through the artistic experience in the classroom.
