O ambiente virtual de aprendizagem como potencializador da Arte/Educação ambiental
Resumo
O sentido de pertencimento, primordial nas relações do sujeito com o meio,
pode ser fruto das conexões entre Arte e Educação Ambiental, duas áreas que
se aproximam e se complementam, potencializando processos sociais interativos,
criativos e cognitivos. Nessa perspectiva, defendemos o uso da tecnologia
como uma ferramenta aliada nos processos pedagógicos que propiciam
a mudança de conduta dos sujeitos em direção a outras formas de relacionamento
com o outro, com o meio ambiente. Apresentamos a proposta de um
ambiente virtual de Arte/Educação Ambiental – o AVArte, como alternativa
pedagógica para o ensino da Arte e para a efetivação de processos de Educação
Ambiental no contexto escolar. O AVArte não se configura apenas como uma
ferramenta de inclusão tecnológica. Pretende ser um meio de instigar o desejo
de aprender em um ambiente que propicia a convivência em uma cultura
digital, despertando o interesse por conhecer o patrimônio histórico, artístico,
cultural e natural do lugar em que vivem os estudantes. A partir da apropriação
desse conhecimento poderão ser estabelecidas relações de pertencimento com
tais lugares. O AVArte é, pois, um potencializador do desejo, tanto para a concretização
de uma educação com mais qualidade, quanto para transformar as
relações do sujeito com o outro e com o seu entorno.
The sense of belonging, which is fundamental in relations between a subject and the environment, may result from connections between Arts and Environmental Education since both areas not only intertwine and complement each other but also trigger interactive, creative and cognitive social processes. From this perspective, we have defended the use of technology as a tool for pedagogical processes which enable subjects to change their behavior in order to develop new forms of relationships with others and the environment. Therefore, we have proposed a virtual environment for Arts/Environmental Education, the so named AVArte, to become a pedagogical tool for Arts teaching and for the development of processes in Environmental Education in school contexts. However, it is a way to instigate the wish for learning, rather than a mere tool for technological inclusion, since it enables learners to share a digital culture besides triggering their interest in the historical, artistic, cultural and natural heritage of the places where they live. When knowledge is acquired, new relations and the sense of belonging can be established with these places. Thus, AVArte triggers wish, not only for better education, but also for changes in relations with others and with the surroundings.
