Abstract

The Supervised Teaching Practice Report deals with elements that bear relevance to identifying factors that encourage or inhibit students’ creative processes, by implementing effective strategies, as proposed by authors like Amabile, Alencar, Sternber e Lubart, as a means to stimulate drawing practice. The theoretical framework, based on the work carried out during the internship, takes into consideration the fundamental importance of the practice of drawing as an intrinsic component of all plastic language. Therefore, the use of the sketchbook proves to be an important pedagogical tool which provides students with a record of their unlimited experimentation and is a constant source of inspiration, always open to various interpretations and simultaneously encouraging the practice of sketching, which broadens and crosses its content with other teaching subjects. The practice of expressive drawing in a sketchbook, based on topics depicted in text form, and whose techniques were carried out in the classroom context, revealed the students’ gradual creative process, contributed to the development of their individual perception and graphic expression, building a critical and reflexive conscience which are the essential tools in shaping the uniqueness of their own life experiences.
