This article presents the results of a Master´s study conducted at the Graduate Program in Education of Universidade Federal do Mato Grosso, which sought to understand how educational practices occur in the teaching of art in Youth and Adult Education in Cuiabá city, Mato Grosso state, Brazil, using qualitative, descriptive and interpretative methodology. Conceiving teaching in a constructivist perspective, based on the triangular proposal for the teaching of art, which emphasizes actual doing, reading and contextualization during the classes, we observed how the teacher acted as a mediator in the construction of the knowledge of Art. Such knowledge is important as education is grounded on the construction of knowledge, which is actually achieved by human activity and, in this case, art. Although some young and adult students had concepts of art that needed to be expanded, the teacher sought, through the contact with the different artistic expressions, to lead students to develop the concept that art is a human production, that is, an object of knowledge which has been an integral part of life since the dawn of mankind. She also sought to teach that learning how to read, how to understand a work of art, makes the students become competent readers who can produce meaningful interpretations of the world around them. Therefore, the concepts and practices of art produced by the students are important, as they are constructions of knowledge based on their life experiences.

The Importance of Student Artistic Production to Teaching Visual Culture.arewull88
This document discusses the importance of student artistic production in teaching visual culture. It makes three key points:
1. Student artistic production is foundational to teaching visual culture because it involves transforming curriculum content, shifting teaching methods, and rethinking how student work is assigned and assessed.
2. Student art is a form of identity formation and cultural inquiry. Through artistic production, students can explore their multiple identities and respond to influences from visual culture in constructive ways.
3. Student art should be used as a form of cultural critique. Assignments should focus on developing student ideas and allow them to comment on and influence contemporary visual conditions through their work.
This document summarizes an article from the International Journal of Education & the Arts about a project called Arts as a Tool for Learning Across the Curriculum (ATLAC) at the University of Aberdeen.

The Process of Teaching and Learning in the University, Setting From Studentinventionjournals
ABSTRACT:The university teacher must respond to the current challenges for quality education therefore must have a specific teaching professional profile to meet the expectations of the authorities, parents and students. The study aimed to describe the perception of students about the process of teaching and learning they receive and their expectations of teacher performance. The study was conducted with all third semester students are studying Bachelor of Athletic Training offered by the State University of Sonora. The population surveyed was 136 students. The gathering of information was through a questionnaire with open questions to facilitate student expression on the object of study. The interest of the students to develop in a balanced way the theoretical and practical elements required in the professional field, calling for more attention to the work applied to the race in both cases is identified. The profile of university teaching focuses on social, emotional, organizational and teaching skills. The need for teaching with sufficient demand to stimulate the academic performance, but flexible and understanding at the required times is emphasized.
This article discusses developing an art education curriculum to address contemporary social issues like discrimination, bullying, and violence. The researcher created an interdisciplinary art course for high school juniors and seniors that used artistic projects to examine these issues. Students devised and created individual and group projects both in and out of the classroom to bring awareness to these topics. The curriculum was developed with the belief that art can cultivate empathy and enable positive transformation. It emphasized socially engaged art over a sole focus on artistic techniques. Students participated in teaching and assessment to take responsibility for their learning. The researcher found this approach reduced problems and helped students understand course material through visual culture.

Transmedia Literacies in Professional Qualification Practicesinventionjournals
This article aims to present a methodological theoretical proposal of acting in the teaching and learning process of the public school of basic education “Maria CintraNunes Rocha”, situated in Franca, State of São Paulo. We propose to do it by interfering in literacy practices of its actors, which will be developed from the teachers practice. For this, we assume that they are directly related to the low performance of students since that in the formal educational practices, the teacher takes the role of mediator between students and knowledge. Tackling this issue, we propose a creation of a Transmedia Literacy Laboratory, structured as a digital platform that must be collectively build in a partnership between the university (researchers of this project: leaders, the collaborators, and tutored students) and the public school (school leaders, principals, supervisors, professors, students, and auxiliaries). The main goal is to act as a common space for converging researches, continuous teacher training, production and dissemination of scientific knowledge as well as dissemination of learning practices and objects oriented and aiming to improve the quality of primary education in the referred school.

Sociocognitive model por wendy velascowendyvelasco
This document discusses Vygotsky's sociocognitive model of learning and development. It states that according to Vygotsky, culture is the prime factor in individual development, as humans are the only species that has formed culture. A child's cognitive development is affected by the culture they are immersed in, including their family environment. Initially, interacting adults bear most of the responsibility for guiding a child's problem solving, but gradually transfer responsibility to the child. Language is the main form of interaction through which adults transmit cultural knowledge to children.
This document discusses strategies for improving the curriculum setting of art education programs. It recommends taking employment needs as guidance and updating educational concepts. It suggests strengthening basic teaching and innovating teaching methods with multimedia and micro-lessons. The goal of talent training should be determined, with curriculum designed to be goal-oriented and flexibly meet changing needs. Cultural courses should be created to improve students' comprehensive qualities. Practice bases should be established and practice teaching optimized to strengthen students' practical skills training. The overall aim is to cultivate applied talents useful to social development and meet diverse societal and employer demands.

Connecting student learning and technologyAliAqsamAbbasi
The document discusses constructivism as a learning theory and compares teacher-centered and learner-centered classrooms. It provides an example of a traditional, teacher-centered 7th grade social studies class on the Great Lakes region, where students read from a textbook and complete worksheets. In contrast, it describes a learner-centered class where students plan a hypothetical road trip to a Great Lakes city, researching information and keeping a journal, then sharing their work. The learner-centered approach supports constructivist learning principles by tapping prior knowledge, providing an authentic context, and allowing active, reflective and social aspects of learning.
Progressiveness Of The Magister Study Program Of Fine Art Education In The In...AJHSSR Journal
ABSTRACT : Research background is the concern about how to obtain better management for art education
regarding to the fact that it still struggles at Industry 3.0 level. Institutions for fine art education mostly deliver
the teaching in classical way, which is textbook based or reyling on demonstrative technique. In the other hand,
lecturers still inform techniques, principles and substances of art teachings in a way that forces students to learn
it manually. Therefore, current scholars assume that such art education is stagnant and incapable to serve
market‟s demand for skilled workers. This assumption was discussed by the coordinator organization for
Indonesian postgraduate study programs, FORPIMPAS (Forum Pimpinan Pascasarjana) in Parapat, Medan, on
September 26-29, 2019, which was attended by higher education institutions for teachings (LPTK) throughout
Indonesia. The Forum expects that the discussion will touch the mind of policy makers. Type of this research is
a documentative descriptive review. The data include papers, books, articles, and minutes of FORPIMPAS‟s
intensive discussion. Result of analysis is summarized as follows. Art education can realize its progressive
action when it (1) does curriculum transformation, (2) has a capability to adapt with social problems, and (3) has
a capability of management at proper effectiveness, flexibility and quality.
KEYWORDS: higher education, fine art, and industry 4.0 revolution
This document proposes a model for incorporating Critical Literacy Pedagogy (CLP) principles into an English reading class in an Indonesian high school to foster students' critical thinking skills. The model involves three interventions using Indonesian folklore texts, which contain controversial topics to encourage questioning. Each intervention teaches critical thinking concepts, uses a seven-step reading procedure incorporating CLP principles, and discusses critical thinking skills. The goal is to provide an alternative approach to teaching critical thinking in the Indonesian context by connecting academic instruction to students' culture and experiences.
Developing a Sustainable Ecological Culture of Primary School Students on the...ijtsrd
This document discusses developing ecological culture in primary school students through competency-based approaches. It proposes that the current environmental education system does not fully meet requirements, as education is often episodic and focuses more on theoretical knowledge than practical skills. The author argues that ecological culture formation requires a systematic, technological approach. Environmental education technologies are presented as a set of psychological and pedagogical rules that structure educational activities, materials, and processes to ensure the goals of environmental knowledge and responsibility are met. Overall, the document advocates applying environmental education technologies to organize students' practical activities and interactions with nature to integrate ecological culture into classroom and extracurricular learning.
Pedagogical Opportunities for Formation of Intercultural Tolerance Competence...SubmissionResearchpa
This document discusses pedagogical opportunities for forming intercultural tolerance competence in English language classes. It argues that English classes can play a special role in shaping students' understanding of intercultural tolerance, as students learn about other cultures while also developing language skills. However, more attention needs to be paid to cultivating tolerance in English lessons. The document outlines several methods that can be used, such as explaining to students from a young age that all people and cultures are different and should be respected, including materials that reflect diverse cultures in lessons, and holding special culture days. Intercultural tolerance is best developed through both individual and group work, using dialogues and interactive activities to build relationships between students.
The document discusses the value and appropriate use of multiple choice questions (MCQs) in assessing history. It addresses the following key points:
- The objectives of history education are to develop students' knowledge, understanding, and skills related to history. MCQs are effective for assessing knowledge but not understanding or skills.
- While MCQs have benefits like efficiency, an overreliance on them can encourage memorization over understanding. To use them well, questions must link to specific learning objectives and have a clearly correct answer.
- To maximize the benefits of MCQs, teachers must have a clear understanding of the knowledge students need to develop understanding and skills. MCQs should assess this prerequisite knowledge, not unnecessary details.
Education in Brazil between 1930 and 1985: Prioritizing Quantity over Quality...Gustavo Araújo
In the history of research on Brazilian education, several studies have addressed the expansion of elementary education over the years in Brazil, in addition to the historical pedagogical context that permeated this process of expansion in the period between 1930 and 1985. The main objective of this article is to analyze the process of expansion of Brazilian elementary education, based on Laws No. 4.024/61 and No. 5.692/71 of the National Education Guidelines and Framework Law (NEGFL). This research was based on a qualitative approach to documentary and bibliographic evidence and followed an interpretative research perspective. The article concludes that the educational policy of the military dictatorship in Brazil after the 1960s was supported by these two laws, and that their main objective was to ensure the expansion of vacancies in elementary education, aiming at the minimum qualifications for entry into the labor market, prioritizing the quantity and not the quality of education. Public education realized in the formation of human resources is considered a way to guarantee productivity, attending on the one hand to the demands for qualified labor in the capitalist market, and on the other hand, to the improvement of wages and the distribution of income to the elites.
Apinay art a case study in a brazilian indigenous schoolGustavo Araújo
The Apinayé are a Brazilian indigenous ethnic group that live in a transition zone between the Cerrado and the Amazon. This study primarily aims to understand the meaning that art holds for Apinayé indigenous students at a Brazilian Indigenous School. We used an ethnographic research methodology, while also observing art classes and distributing open questionnaires to these students. The results showed that the arts produced by the indigenous people mostly refer to the body paintings and cultural artifacts they produce, such as necklaces made of beads, fans, coufo, and babassu coconuts, among others. In addition, the indigenous people characterize the Brazilian indigenous culture as something that is extremely significant for their lives, as art represents not only their reality but also their history, struggle, and resistance. Finally, the study suggests that the discipline of art in the indigenous school can help the students understand that the handicrafts they develop and the body painting, babassu coconut straw beds, and other artifacts they produce are also artistic and aesthetic objects that represent their story. Therefore, they are not dissociated from Brazilian art and culture.

This document proposes a model for incorporating Critical Literacy Pedagogy (CLP) principles into an English reading class in an Indonesian high school to foster students' critical thinking skills. The model involves three interventions using Indonesian folklore texts, which contain controversial topics to encourage questioning. Each intervention teaches critical thinking concepts, uses a seven-step reading procedure incorporating CLP principles, and discusses critical thinking skills. The goal is to provide an alternative approach to teaching critical thinking in the Indonesian context by connecting academic instruction to students' culture and experiences.
Developing a Sustainable Ecological Culture of Primary School Students on the...ijtsrd
This document discusses developing ecological culture in primary school students through competency-based approaches. It proposes that the current environmental education system does not fully meet requirements, as education is often episodic and focuses more on theoretical knowledge than practical skills. The author argues that ecological culture formation requires a systematic, technological approach. Environmental education technologies are presented as a set of psychological and pedagogical rules that structure educational activities, materials, and processes to ensure the goals of environmental knowledge and responsibility are met. Overall, the document advocates applying environmental education technologies to organize students' practical activities and interactions with nature to integrate ecological culture into classroom and extracurricular learning.
Pedagogical Opportunities for Formation of Intercultural Tolerance Competence...SubmissionResearchpa
This document discusses pedagogical opportunities for forming intercultural tolerance competence in English language classes. It argues that English classes can play a special role in shaping students' understanding of intercultural tolerance, as students learn about other cultures while also developing language skills. However, more attention needs to be paid to cultivating tolerance in English lessons. The document outlines several methods that can be used, such as explaining to students from a young age that all people and cultures are different and should be respected, including materials that reflect diverse cultures in lessons, and holding special culture days. Intercultural tolerance is best developed through both individual and group work, using dialogues and interactive activities to build relationships between students.
The document discusses the value and appropriate use of multiple choice questions (MCQs) in assessing history. It addresses the following key points:
- The objectives of history education are to develop students' knowledge, understanding, and skills related to history. MCQs are effective for assessing knowledge but not understanding or skills.
- While MCQs have benefits like efficiency, an overreliance on them can encourage memorization over understanding. To use them well, questions must link to specific learning objectives and have a clearly correct answer.
- To maximize the benefits of MCQs, teachers must have a clear understanding of the knowledge students need to develop understanding and skills. MCQs should assess this prerequisite knowledge, not unnecessary details.

Education in Brazil between 1930 and 1985: Prioritizing Quantity over Quality...Gustavo Araújo
In the history of research on Brazilian education, several studies have addressed the expansion of elementary education over the years in Brazil, in addition to the historical pedagogical context that permeated this process of expansion in the period between 1930 and 1985. The main objective of this article is to analyze the process of expansion of Brazilian elementary education, based on Laws No. 4.024/61 and No. 5.692/71 of the National Education Guidelines and Framework Law (NEGFL). This research was based on a qualitative approach to documentary and bibliographic evidence and followed an interpretative research perspective. The article concludes that the educational policy of the military dictatorship in Brazil after the 1960s was supported by these two laws, and that their main objective was to ensure the expansion of vacancies in elementary education, aiming at the minimum qualifications for entry into the labor market, prioritizing the quantity and not the quality of education. Public education realized in the formation of human resources is considered a way to guarantee productivity, attending on the one hand to the demands for qualified labor in the capitalist market, and on the other hand, to the improvement of wages and the distribution of income to the elites.
Apinay art a case study in a brazilian indigenous schoolGustavo Araújo
The Apinayé are a Brazilian indigenous ethnic group that live in a transition zone between the Cerrado and the Amazon. This study primarily aims to understand the meaning that art holds for Apinayé indigenous students at a Brazilian Indigenous School. We used an ethnographic research methodology, while also observing art classes and distributing open questionnaires to these students. The results showed that the arts produced by the indigenous people mostly refer to the body paintings and cultural artifacts they produce, such as necklaces made of beads, fans, coufo, and babassu coconuts, among others. In addition, the indigenous people characterize the Brazilian indigenous culture as something that is extremely significant for their lives, as art represents not only their reality but also their history, struggle, and resistance. Finally, the study suggests that the discipline of art in the indigenous school can help the students understand that the handicrafts they develop and the body painting, babassu coconut straw beds, and other artifacts they produce are also artistic and aesthetic objects that represent their story. Therefore, they are not dissociated from Brazilian art and culture.

PRÁTICAS PEDAGÓGICAS EM ARTES NO CONTEXTO RURAL E URBANO EM TOCANTINSGustavo Araújo
Este artigo socializa os resultados de uma investigação mais ampla realizada em escolas tocantinenses que teve como principal objetivo analisar como a disciplina de Arte é trabalhada em uma escola urbana e em uma escola do campo. A pesquisa é de abordagem qualitativa, característica exploratória, e segue a perspectiva interpretativa. Constatamos que arte ainda é vista pela maioria dos alunos e professores como sendo basicamente desenho e pintura, e em alguns momentos, de lazer, o que evidencia a sua desvalorização no currículo escolar. Nas escolas pesquisadas há docentes que atuam na disciplina de Arte sem formação específica na área, o que exige medidas urgentes para a qualificação desses professores. Diante disso, é fundamental considerar que esses dados são resultantes de vários fatores, dentre eles, a pouca atenção dada pelo poder público a essa área, na oferta de mais cursos de formação inicial e continuada em artes no Estado do Tocantins.

ABSTRACT
This article presents the results of a Master´s study conducted at
the Graduate Program in Education of Universidade Federal do
Mato Grosso, which sought to understand how educational
practices occur in the teaching of art in Youth and Adult
Education in Cuiabá city, Mato Grosso state, Brazil, using
qualitative, descriptive and interpretative methodology.
Conceiving teaching in a constructivist perspective, based on the
triangular proposal for the teaching of art, which emphasizes
actual doing, reading and contextualization during the classes,
we observed how the teacher acted as a mediator in the
construction of the knowledge of Art. Such knowledge is
important as education is grounded on the construction of
knowledge, which is actually achieved by human activity and, in
this case, art. Although some young and adult students had
concepts of art that needed to be expanded, the teacher sought,
through the contact with the different artistic expressions, to
lead students to develop the concept that art is a human
production, that is, an object of knowledge which has been an
integral part of life since the dawn of mankind. She also sought
to teach that learning how to read, how to understand a work of
art, makes the students become competent readers who can
produce meaningful interpretations of the world around them.
Therefore, the concepts and practices of art produced by the
students are important, as they are constructions of knowledge
based on their life experiences.
Keywords: Teaching art; Youth and adult education;

RESUMO
O artigo apresenta os resultados de uma pesquisa de mestrado
desenvolvida no Programa de Pós-graduação em Educação da
Universidade Federal de Mato Grosso, na qual buscamos
compreender como acontecem as práticas pedagógicas no ensino
de arte na Educação de Jovens e Adultos (EJA) em Cuiabá,
Mato Grosso. Como procedimento metodológico, o estudo
fundamentou-se na pesquisa qualitativa, de caráter descritivo e
interpretativo. Concebendo a docência em uma concepção
construtivista, baseada na proposta triangular para o ensino da
arte, ressaltando o fazer, a leitura e a contextualização durante
as aulas, observou-se como uma professora agiu como
mediadora na construção do conhecimento em arte. Esse
conhecer é importante, pois a educação é fundamentada na
construção de conhecimento e tem na atividade humana, neste
caso, a arte, a sua concretização. Embora alguns jovens e adultos
tenham demonstrado conceitos de arte que necessitem ser
ampliados, por meio do conhecimento das diferentes
manifestações artísticas, notou-se como a professora procurou
desenvolver nesses educandos a concepção de que arte é uma
produção humana, ou seja, objeto de conhecimento que faz parte
da vida desde os primórdios da humanidade. Além disso,
procurou ensinar que aprender a ler e a compreender uma obra
são ações que fazem dos alunos leitores competentes para
produzirem interpretações significativas do mundo à sua volta.
Portanto, as concepções e práticas produzidas pelos alunos
acerca da arte são importantes, pois são construções de
conhecimento baseados em suas experiências de vida.

Introduction
This article presents the results of
a Master's degree research developed at the
Post-graduation Program in Education of
the Federal University of Mato Grosso, in
which we seek to understand how
pedagogical practices happen in teaching
art in a class of students in the Youth and
Adult Education Center (CEJA) in Cuiabá,
Mato Grosso, and concepts underlying
those practices developed in art classes. As
methodological procedure, the study was
based on qualitative research, descriptive
and interpretative approach. By this way,
we seek to carefully observe and portray
the perspective of the subjects, obtaining
descriptive data in direct contact with the
researcher who studied the situation, which
favored the understanding of the central
issue of the study.
Data collection and analysis tools
used in this research were: I) interviews 1
recorded with students of youth and adult
education, which were later transcribed; II)
written record of the lessons observed
during art classes in the field book and
through visual records of the practices of
the teacher and artistic work of students;
III) analysis of documents such as the
Pedagogical Political Project (PPP) of the
surveyed school; lesson plans art teacher,
and Resolutions regarding the legalization
of adult education in Brazil and in the State
of Mato Grosso.
The article is divided into two
parts. At first, we seek to present the most
significant analyses of pedagogical
practices used by the art teacher, in order
to reveal how it develops teaching and
learning of art with a group of Youth and
Adult Education (EJA), a high school
segment in Cuiabá, Mato Grosso. Then we
present the analysis of the conceptions of
the youth and adult education students
about art. In this second part, our intention
was try to understand which conceptions
involved in the survey they had about art
and how the pedagogical practices used by
the teacher are justified.
The artistic expression
accompanies the very evolution of man. It
is at school that the young and the adult
people will socialize their experiences,
develop new skills and learn new concepts
and theories that will accompany them
throughout their lives. Since most of these
students already have a wide experience of
life, they will be able to exchange
experiences with each other, socializing
and building knowledge.
Pedagogical practices in art in
adult education
The education of young people
and adults in Brazil has constituted, over
the recent years, an important form of
education that seeks to confront the social
inequalities and school exclusion. In this
sense, school has been an important mean
for the inclusion of those young people
and adults who, for several different
reasons, were unable to start or continue
their studies in basic education.
The student diversity present in
adult education, consisting of different
ages, professions and life experiences,
provides a pedagogical and more flexible
curriculum model, in order to fully meet
the learning needs of the young and
adults. This flexibility can be expressed
as:
[...] Combinations of classroom
teaching and non-presence in a tune
with themes of everyday life of the
students so that they can become
generator elements of a relevant
curriculum. (BRAZIL, 2000, p. 61).
For Di Pierro (2005), it is
important to the education of youth and
adults develop next to autonomy from
socio-cultural changes more frequent
nowadays, having in the right for
education its most important tool for
democratization. In this sense, not only
seeking the right for a quality education,
but the recognition that young adults are
important subjects of education.
From this, education is
indispensable for the exercise of
4. 682
Educ. Pesqui., São Paulo, v. 41, n. 3, p. 679-694, jul./set. 2015.. http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/s1517-97022015051839
citizenship, cultural education and critical
sense of the individual. In this reflection,
according to Paiva (2007), youth and
adult education does not become just a
right but an emancipation of human
development for participation in society
as citizens.
On the other hand, the main EJA-
related problems such as truancy, which
causes the non-permanence of the student
in school, cannot be considered specific
problems in adult education, because it is
something relevant to the entire Brazilian
basic education (CANDA 2012). We think
that, in order to understand the generally
low self- esteem present in these students,
a deeper reflection about the social
conditions in which they are is required.
So we understand that art classes
can be timely spaces for youth and adults
work "disinhibition, low self-esteem, body
awareness and the cultivation of sociality"
(BRAZIL 2000, p. 61) as they are subjects
that present different levels of learning,
which must be observed by the teacher.
School exclusion is only one way
of denying the right of the young and
adults to know and experience the
universal artistic experience, called by
Canda (2012) aesthetic illiteracy, which
refers to no contact or access of the
individual to different art forms. Thus, the
author contributes by saying:
The spaces for the production and
artistic enjoyment have been historically
denied to the popular classes. On the
other hand, we consider that training for
full cultural experience encourages the
appeal and the appreciation of the
artwork, as a set of symbolic and
cultural knowledge. (CANDA, 2012, p.
16).
Therefore, we understand that the
school environment can offer opportunities
for appreciation and artistic production to
the youth and adult education, as long as it
has contact and access to different artistic
languages. Another condition is that the
teacher and the school can offer the student
the opportunity to go through the aesthetic
experience, important for the process of
teaching and learning and hence for
building knowledge. Reflections regarding
these related to art education in Youth and
Adult Education instigate us to search for
it in education.
During the teacher of art classes
2
of this discipline, we observed that their
pedagogical practices with the class of
Youth and Adult Education were based
on the triangular proposal for teaching
art. Constant images, videos and
biographies of visual artists were showed,
contextualizing art history topics for
reality of the young and adults and
leading them out of the classroom to
realize the artistic practice. In other
words, students were the works of art
after the teacher had contextualized the
content in the classroom or in the video
room. They used since artistic traditional
materials such as brushes, paints and
pencils to materials such as stones, sand
and plants in artistic production.
To Contextualize, read and do.
This is the proposal for teaching art in the
design of the triangular proposal, which
effectively seeks to build knowledge in
art and is quite emphasized by the teacher
during lessons with the class of adult
education. From the 90s to the present
day, this proposal is proving to be the
main trend for teaching in Brazilian
schools. Systematized in the late 1980s
and put into practice at the Contemporary
Art Museum of the University of São
Paulo, in the period between 1987 and
1993, it has as main objective to meet the
real needs of learning and knowledge of
the art student through making art
(creation/production), analyzing or
decoding (reading images/ appreciation)
the artwork and dealing with the context
or information (art history/context)
(BARBOSA, 1988). That's why one of
the goals of this research was also to
understand whether the practices used by
the teacher are based on the proposal.

The Triangular Proposal derives from a
double triangulation. The first is
epistemological, to designate the
components of teaching/learning for
three basic actions mentally and
sensory, which is: creation (art
making), reading of the art work and
context. The second triangulation is the
genesis of systematization itself,
originated in a threefold influence,
swallowing three other epistemological
approaches: the Mexican Escuelas al
Aire Libre, English Critical Studies and
the movement of aesthetic appreciation
coupled with the American DBAE
(Discipline Based Art Education).
(BARBOSA, 1998, p. 33-34).
In this regard, we emphasize that
any "content of any visual and aesthetic
nature can be explored, interpreted and
operated through the Triangular Proposal"
(BARBOSA, 1998, p. 38), while also
allowing the teacher to research. Hence
justified the fact that the Curricular
Proposal in the State of Mato Grosso,
with regard to teaching art, is also built on
that proposal.
Humans have always used
images to represent the reality that
surrounds him, emerging hence the
relationship between art and reality.
Being young and adults creators, authors
of their works, we can say that from the
work done by adult education class,
students were able to reflect a new human
reality.
The artistic work of the students
surveyed showed the creative process of
each, giving rise to interesting works of
art. An example is the sculpture of St.
Benedict (Figure 1), a contemporary work
made from the theme of religiosity very
significant aspect in the context of
cuiabania - term used to mark the identity
of cultural expressions, ways of life and
values in the city of Cuiabá, MT. It is a
unique, ephemeral work as contemporary
art allows, but drafted according to
the technical procedures of the Land Art
or Art earth - artistic movement emerged
in the mid-twentieth century in the United
States, based on interference with the
environment in the production of the
work of art. These procedures were
contextualized by the teacher in previous
lessons for the implementation of
sculpture. Therefore, it is important to
emphasize that the procedures are varied,
implicitly present in the elaboration of a
work "and also unusual, especially when
it comes to contemporary art, crossing
boundaries between languages"
(COUTINHO, 2009, p. 179).
Figure 1 - Sculpture of St. Benedict.
From these reflections, we
understand that the art work was a
dialogue and communication tool, in
which the student of the youth and adult
education could express his ideas,
feelings, emotions that once objectified,
were socialized and shared.
During the classes, the teacher
told the students that art has several
functions, including the denouncing, or
toward the awareness of man in nature,
so that it can preserve the environment
in which it appears, meeting the Land
6. 684
Educ. Pesqui., São Paulo, v. 41, n. 3, p. 679-694, jul./set. 2015.. http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/s1517-97022015051839
Art. He also said that when there was the
nature, the man did not exist. She
completed stating that the students
should see art among its various
languages, carefully, with a detailed look
and not lost.
The teacher also affirmed that art
is part of students' knowledge, and today
there is a very rich cultural heritage and
preserved for people to see and know the
art of other times. She encouraged
students to meet other themes and issues
related to the arts, even after finishing the
classes because, according to her, art
contents change during the school year.
According to Coutinho (2009),
mediation broadens the interpretation of
the work. Ie when new information -
communication media, for example - are
socialized to people and when the
mediator - the teacher, for example -
suggests instigators issues that may be
significant to this guy on visual work, it
helps to expand the interpretation and
knowledge of the work.
In this sense, we believe it would
be a rich and good opportunity for the
young and the adult people to enjoy and
participate in an art exhibition held with
their jobs, because they were the authors
of the works. It is also why we think not
only in spaces such as museums and
cultural centers for the youth and adult
education student get access to. Yes,
these spaces are very important. But the
school can also offer this opportunity to
educate the art of socialization, since it
allows him suitable spaces for the
realization and consequent exposure of
these works, comprising not only the art
as a field of knowledge and discipline of
the school curriculum, but the very work
done by the young and adults.
School, in the literate society, is an
institution dedicated to the
development of the individual, and to
promote the meeting of what is
universal in humans. All
understanding, no matter how small it
is, related to artistic expression, is a
social and historical construction.
(ALVARES, 2012, p. 44).
A very important aspect to be
highlighted in the teacher practice was
the fact of pointing out, even briefly,
works by Brazilian artists during the
performance of work done by the
students. In our view, this is very
important because it removes some
European hegemony so present in our
society. The art teacher should not only
enhance international artists, but also pay
attention to artistic local, regional and
national production. It is a way of valuing
the art produced in Brazil which,
incidentally, is very rich. Students need to
have that contact, extend this knowledge.
In Mato Grosso state,
specifically in Cuiabá city, there are
great artists that stand out in the state,
the country and abroad too, such as
Gervane de Paula, Nilson Pimenta,
Clovis Irigaray, among others. These
artists were presented to the students by
the teacher, which shows the importance
the teacher gives the contextualization of
the art produced at the place where those
young and adults are inserted, so that
they can know and understand the art
produced in their country.
On the other hand, it is
important to note that some texts worked
out by the teacher with the students of
the YAE, in our assessment, were
superficial because it brought some
incomplete or confused information
about the themes and art content
discussed in class, such as Land Art,
Brazilian rock art and modern art, and
some have not been read in the
classroom. We observed that some
examples brought by the texts were
scored by the students, especially in
practical classes, as in Land Art, which
was a good thing.
Take texts to work with
students, especially the young and the
adults, is a way of instigating these
subjects to the importance reading can
7. 685
Educ. Pesqui., São Paulo, v. 41, n. 3, p. 679-694, jul./set. 2015.. http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/s1517-97022015051839
have in their lives, but for that it is
necessary the teacher to make the
student interested in reading and
motivated to it. We believe that the
reading habit can have cultural and
family influence, but the student is the
center of learning and the teacher should
be the mediator so they can perform
visual and textual readings that are
critical and significant.
On each class observed the
teacher had a different purpose. There
were times when she only worked with
printed texts, but most of the classes
emphasized the artistic practice. There
were also classes that were more
explanatory and other more questioning.
In other words, it was not just what the
teacher explained, but also the
questionings. Perhaps this explains why
some classes do not have as much to do
with each other. However, all should be
guided by a common point: relate the
topic to the earth issue, which was the
educational project worked by the school
in the quarter. Therefore, we believe it is
important the teacher to question
students about the art world, so that they
can feel motivated:
[...] To question and find answers to
questions about the artistic works from
our midst, their authors, viewers, with
a time-based context/regarding local
and international space, can support the
expansion and diversification of our
practical and theoretical repertoire
concerning the dimensions of the
artistic process. During the course of
these exercises analysis, comparison
and contrast between Brazilian art
works of our region and other regions
and countries mobilize transformations
in our knowledge reaching new
"levels" of understanding in the field of
art and its history. (FERRAZ;
FUSARI, 2010, p 141).
According to the teacher’s plan,
which was quarterly, it was noticeable
that she did not include all the required
content for it in the period. We thought
this was due to the fact that the discipline
of art has reduced working hours in the
school curriculum, which can harm the
students, making they lose the
opportunity to learn and expand their
knowledge. Therefore, it is important to
give more attention to this subject in
school, since it is an area of knowledge
and promotes knowledge construction.
Young and adult can learn to
appreciate an art work. The artistic
knowledge is a learning that begins by
observing a work. Then stakeholders need
to continue this knowledge seeking the
context of the work, author etc. We know
that knowledge in art expands the
understanding of the world and improves
the ability of expression. This happened
when students created their original
works such as the sculpture of St.
Benedict, very contemporary (Figure 1)
and a good example of how the socio-
cultural context of the city was worked
into the school curriculum.
According to the work done by
the YAE students during art classes, we
can say that basically all were drawers,
which shows how this language is still
prevalent in society and visual culture.
Even though drawings of observation,
imagination or memory, people still
represent reality through this language.
This observation leads us to say
that the design language historically in
visual culture is the basis for several
productions and contemporary visual
expressions - painting, printmaking,
comics, graffiti etc. Hence its presence
so strongly marked in the work of the
YAE class, as it follows.
The output with the students to
perform most of the work guided by the
teacher made it possible to intensify
social interactions among all, and have
the opportunity to search and use
different objects for artistic production,
such as stones, sand, soil plants among
others, as it can be seen in figures 2 and
3:

Figure 2 - Working on Land Art 1.
Figure 3 - Work on Land Art 2.
We also note that from the
fact that the students carry a
significant life experience, they were
able to be more participatory in class.
The teacher looked beyond some
works done in the classroom and,
establishing relations with the
student's reality, centralizing
education in their life stories, aimed at
contributing to the process of teaching
and learning.
To broaden the
understanding of the pedagogical
practices used by the teacher and
uncover concepts that students of
YAE had about art, we will next
discuss, the significant analyses from
interviews made with the subjects of
this study, which were recorded and
transcribed.
What the Youth and Adult
Education students think
about art
The art education has an
important role to provide young people
and adults new experience, making
individuals better prepared to realize the
social environment in which they live
and learn to understand it and interact
with it, seeking an expanded
understanding of art and their different
languages.
While it essentially human, art
is produced at one time, context, culture
and society, which holds values,
concepts, emotions, meanings and
expression of the reality that surrounds
it. Therefore, it:
[...] Stimulates intelligence and
contributes to the integral formation
of the individual, without having the
focus on artistic training itself,
therefore it can be considered that art
arises as an important educational
work for the human dimension.
(QUADROS 2011, p. 55).
The interviews with these
individuals revealed, among other
concepts, the art understood as human
knowledge and expression of feelings:
It's a learning ... learning ... (I7)
Expression. Way to express yourself.
(R3)
Knowledge ... Knowledge about
everything, general. (S2)
Art is a way to express oneself. (T4)
For me art is joy, is the way to express
the feeling we're feeling at that moment,
sometimes moments of sadness,
9. 687
Educ. Pesqui., São Paulo, v. 41, n. 3, p. 679-694, jul./set. 2015.. http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/s1517-97022015051839
sometimes joy, it is the expression of
joy. (O9)
Art tries to convey to us joy ... I think
it's very important in the life of people,
on a daily basis. (R6)
Art is to express ... Any form, by drawing
... (M1)
In these lines, we realize that
most students understand art as a way to
express their feelings, and it is recurrent
the term joy in their statements, but also
as a way of knowledge, by emphasizing
words like expression, knowledge and
learning.
The art arouses different
sensitivities. It can awaken joy, sadness,
or even serve as a way and expression to
denounce or criticize any social or
political event occurred in society.
However, it is important to note that one
should not only conceive art as an
expression of sensitive, as well as
clarifies Barbosa (2008), because, that
way, knowledge in the art will not be
fully exploited. On the contrary, besides
expressing sensitive, art should fully
contribute to the cultural development of
these students in the process of teaching
and learning.
Therefore, "art is seen as
language, expression, construction,
knowledge" (FERRAZ; SIQUEIRA,
1987) and as a feeling (READ, 1987).
These conceptions are present in the
speeches of the youth and adult education
students. In this reflection, art favored the
development of creativity, imagination
and critical sense of these important
subjects of education.
Finding out that the student has
knowledge in arts, with regard to
languages and artistic experiences, also
shows relevant to a good performance of
the teacher, and to unveil how this
knowledge is being built in art classes. It
is also necessary to organize classes that
can address activities involving artistic
practice and analysis of art in productions
(FERRAZ; FUSARI, 2010).
When asked about what kind of
knowledge in art is learned at school,
many of the students stressed the
languages which they had contact during
their school life, with emphasis on the
design and painting:
I learned to paint, learned to mix colors,
it is also very cool, mix the colors I did
not know before ... (C3)
Many things ... I learned a lot of
drawing, painting. (E1)
It is design ... (J6)
Especially painting. The painting was
for me the most interesting. It is one
more knowledge we got. To tell the
truth, you know the art by the colors, the
primary colors and then you will ...
drawing, highlighting more ... (J2)
Crafts, painting. (K8)
I learned that it's not just stand there
painting ... even a doodle is a work of
art, even people passing a brush there is
a work of art. (V5)
The statements showed an
interesting aspect: more than half of the
students believes that the knowledge
learned in art school is related to some
kind of artistic language experienced at
school, such as drawing and painting,
the latter being the language that teacher
worked more in art lessons with these
students, despite their academic training
is in music.
In this sense it is important to
highlight that knowledge in art should
not be geared to learning the artistic
languages without being related to
making, experimentation and
information of art history, namely:
[...] When I talk about art know, I talk
about a knowledge that the Visual
10. 688
Educ. Pesqui., São Paulo, v. 41, n. 3, p. 679-694, jul./set. 2015.. http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/s1517-97022015051839
Arts is organized inter-relating the art
making, art appreciation and art
history. None of the three areas alone
corresponds to the epistemology of art
(BARBOSA, 2012, p. 33).
It is therefore necessary that this
knowledge is related to learning the art
forms based on dimensions of reading,
process of making and contextualization.
By building knowledge on art, which also
involves understanding artistic styles,
artists, materials and technical procedures
used throughout art history, students of
YAE can learn to perceive, think, analyze
and distinguish the world around them,
expanding its playability of reality.
The different representations of
art in the social environment raise and
influence the design that young people
and adults have on art. We know that
students live in an imagery society. The
image of different languages invade their
homes, work, in short, it is present almost
anywhere, because they have a great
power of representation, influence the art
concepts formed by young people and
adults. When they get to school, they
bring these pre-formulated concepts
according to their experiences with visual
culture.
Nowadays, the young and the
adults are faced constantly with various
forms of languages such as verbal
imagery (design, for example) among
many others, important for human
communication, which will be examples
of how it can convey ideas, concepts and
information to each other.
In this sense, language is directly
linked to the act of communicating with
each other, transmitting information and
experiences that can be individual or
collective. From this, art plays an
important role in society to be the
language that expresses and transmits
more information and directions to
people, because of the diversity of
languages and existing artistic procedures
in their field of knowledge.
So, we asked students what they
liked more in regard to artistic languages:
Music. Enough!
(H7) Music. (J6)
I like music! (L9)
Music, dance, cinema ... (M1)
Speaking of dancing, I was born dancing
... My brother ... that is my foster-father,
who... my father left too early, then
he,10 years older than me, he took me as
his son. So he was a born dancer of our
regional music, so ... we lived music
indoors, so we like a lot of dancing.
Today I learn, because I never had art
class so when a kid, and now back in
the classroom I'm heading out the art,
studying modern art, such as cubism,
expressionism ... so things are new to
me, but what I'm loving it, too, but the
stronger the same dance. (O9)
My music and cinema ... I do not live
without cinema! (R3)
Music ... (R6)
Music, but the teacher does not work. I
like theater nowadays ... (V5)
The speeches of the students
have left us surprised because, although
the music is present in people's lives not
only as an artistic and cultural event, but
also as a leisure, almost all young people
and adults responded that they liked
music, one of the languages the teacher
did not work during art classes observed,
even if their training is in this setting. It
was also not found in teacher planning
any topic related to music. Therefore, we
can say that she would hardly work with
this language during the period of
classes, even students having shown
interest on this language, as the hours of
discipline at school was greatly reduced
compared to other curriculum subjects
school.
11. 689
Educ. Pesqui., São Paulo, v. 41, n. 3, p. 679-694, jul./set. 2015.. http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/s1517-97022015051839
The absence of this language
was recognized by the student V5, who
declared that the teacher did not work
with music during art classes, which
showed how much students are
aware of the pedagogical work of the
teacher in the classroom.
It is known that there are many
languages of art that are imposed as
important for the school to prioritize. But
it is important that this is done in detail
and in their specificities (IAVELBERG,
2003), even knowing, from the speeches
of the students and the observations in
loco carried out in the field of research,
students had contact primarily with
drawing and painting. When they were
asked about what they liked to do in art
classes, young people and adults
described:
I like to paint ... In her classes, I think it's
pretty cool. (C3)
Watch a video and do a work after the
video is very good. (E1)
I love watching the videos.
(J2)
Painting is very cool! (K8)
I like painting! (L9)
Ah ... Draw. (J6)
I do not like to write, no. Art class is
something of arts. (L5)
Copy matter. Copying I do not
like. (R3) Write. (R6)
The same part of the design.
(S2) Draw it. (T4)
More than half of the students
said not to like drawing and writing.
Also understand that being art class, do
not need to be committed to writing, but
its practical class. It turns out that, as a
historical problem, in which art in the
school curriculum addressed virtually
practical classes, students today are
surprised when classes take other codes
such as writing, for example. It is then
necessary that the teacher knows how to
handle this situation by proposing
dynamic, creative and interesting
classes, so that students do not continue
to think that art class is just practice.
When she shows us videos. (M1)
To paint. (S2)
According to their reports,
students like most to paint, perhaps
precisely because painting is the language
most used by the teacher during class. For
some students, such as E1 and M1, they
prefer watching videos, which were the
times when the teacher contextualize the
subject worked in the classroom, showing
students pictures and information about
the history of art.
Then we ask the young people
and adults about what they did not like to
do the art classes. The responses were as
follows:
To draw. (E1)
Regarding the fact of drawing,
we realize that in some classes, because
they have alleged that the teacher could
not draw, it was avoided practicing such
activity, performing it just as leisure
outside of school, as might be found in
their speech. Often this type of the
student’s reaction of, especially when
dealing with practical classes because
they require skills to develop certain
activities. However, for art education
what matters is not whether the student
draws or does not draw, if he knows or
not how to perform certain artwork, but
if he can learn and develop his cognitive,
aesthetic and cultural training.
Even those students who spoke
that do not draw anything are able to
learn to look at a work of art, learn to
12. 690
Educ. Pesqui., São Paulo, v. 41, n. 3, p. 679-694, jul./set. 2015.. http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/s1517-97022015051839
raise questions about the work, such as:
how the artist made the work? What
time is it? Simply launch this learning,
take the first step. You need to enable
the young to adult learning and
knowledge of art.
You can teach like to learn art
with art itself (IAVELBERG, 2003).
Thus, to promote better conditions of
human life in the natural and social
environment. So it is necessary that the
young adult has contact with art, to have
the opportunity to make artistic
experimentations, which can learn and
know the art by practice and reading, and
not just watching. But to do so, there
must be adequate space for the
development of artistic practice.
The school must provide the
young and the adult not only the
construction of knowledge in art, but also
enable the expansion of this knowledge,
to visit art museums, exhibitions of
artists, diverse cultural expressions,
among many others. In this sense, he was
asked students if participating in cultural
and artistic events:
I go to cinema. (E1)
Attend. ... Dance theater cinema ...
concerts... for sure! (H1)
Only concerts. (I7)
I'm going to take my children ... I'm going
to the movies with them. (J2)
Yes. Often ... Concerts, enough. (J9)
I will ... Where have I go to the SESC
Port has art there, dance, part art, music,
part art
... theater ... I'm always in theater, movie
theater . (J9)
Certainly, I've been to several plays, I
already attended the theater of
Universidade Federal de Mato Grosso,
the Cuiabá city movie theater when it
opened. (O9)
Yes, I attend. I am a member of Chorinho
here, here the Choro Club, attend the
Chorinho weekly play there too. Play
guitar, percussion ... (R3)
The film, yes ... I love to listen to music.
(R6)
Yes. All of what there is at SENAI, the
Pantanal events, always when there is
some exhibition at the mall. (S2)
I go to the movies with my colleagues,
my friends. (T4)
I got to go to concerts ... like theater too.
(V5).
Most students attend cultural
and artistic events, especially concerts.
However, we had the attention called to
the fact that nobody mentioned places
like museums or art exhibitions.
Art is theory. Art is practice.
Art is an aesthetic wonder that produces
knowledge. Therefore, the artistic
knowledge enables cognitive skills
throughout life (QUADROS, 2013).
Regarding the young and adult, these
experiences are unique of their
experiences accumulated over their
lives. Thus, it is because art is present in
different forms in society that proved
relevant to know and understand how it
interfered and was manifested in the
lives of young people and adults during
art classes.
Final considerations
Conceiving teaching in a
constructive concept based on triangular
proposal for teaching art, the teacher
acted as mediator in the construction of
knowledge in art for the young and adult
learners. This meeting is important
because education is grounded in
knowledge production and has human
13. 691
Educ. Pesqui., São Paulo, v. 41, n. 3, p. 679-694, jul./set. 2015.. http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/s1517-97022015051839
activity, in this case the art and its
achievement.
The make of the YAE student is
very important to building and
expanding knowledge in arts that
develops gradually from the contact with
artistic expression, for his aesthetic and
cultural training. But for that, we need
the mediation of the teacher, who
can organize, prepare, analyze, present
and discuss the different artistic
procedures worked in the classroom,
because the main axis of teaching and
learning in this context is the student, so
this should be the focus.
Although some young adults
have demonstrated concepts of art that
need to be expanded through the
knowledge of different artistic
manifestations, the research showed that
the teacher sought to develop with these
students the idea that art is a human
production, therefore an object of
knowledge that makes part of human life
since the beginning. Furthermore, she
tried to get them to learn to read the work
through doing, seeking to form competent
readers to understand the different visual
texts present in their social environment,
producing significant interpretations of
the world around them.
The drawings about art produced
by the students are important because
they are constructions of knowledge
based on their life experiences. However,
we understand that one of the young and
adult forms to expand knowledge and
hence their aesthetic experience, is
attending museums, cultural centers and
liking to do that, so they have a full
contact with art in its pure form. But to do
so, it is necessary to eliminate the gap
between this type of art designated in
society as elitist. Everyone deserves to
have access to and contact with the
universal, not just a minority.
The discipline of art should
provide students with the Youth and
Adult Education these experiences,
making individuals prepared to
understand the social environment in
which they live and interact socially,
getting to know new and different
languages and cultures. It is necessary to
have contact with different artistic
expressions and make use of them for
different purposes.
We found that students were
able to produce significant and quite
contemporary artwork, which
contributed so they could know a little
more of the artistic universe - quite
unknown to most of them - and also to
broaden their aesthetic experience, and
become more participatory in class.
The young and adults build
knowledge through what they do. The
teacher is the main mediator to produce
this knowledge and mobilize the
student's desire to learn. The teacher is
responsible for this learning and training
process. Thus, we understand that the
teacher tried to mediate the production
of knowledge in art in YAE, having as
parameter the triangular proposal for
teaching art. The language used by the
teacher in class were the drawing and
painting, which reinforces the
dominance of the visual arts in art
classes in Brazilian basic education.
Cultural and artistic spaces such
as art museums can enable the YAE
student to further increase this artistic
knowledge. But we understand that this
knowledge can also be produced in
school. Hence the importance of both
the teacher and the teaching to
adequately mediate this process by
offering real opportunities for the young
and adults to learn and enjoy art.
Through this knowledge, they can reflect
and question the aesthetic standards
present in the locality where they live.
Art is an interdisciplinary
knowledge. In addition to providing
knowledge to all areas, it contributes and
brings meaning to teaching and learning
in school education. Art is essentially a
human production, so it is important at
school.
