Atividade prática no ensino de arte, utilizando recursos recicláveis

Abstract

This research aims to evaluate the use of practical activities to create artistic pieces, using recyclable resources in Arts classes. Therefore, we propose two actions that are equivalent to our specific objectives: to identify the damage caused by the disposal of recyclable materials into the environment and to propose activities for teaching Arts using recyclable materials that are in the daily lives of students. The theoretical framework includes discussions about the teaching of Art and about recyclable materials that should be reusable for the good of the environment. The endowed methodological procedures consisted of a qualitative field research, in which we used, as an instrument for data collection, the observation and activities developed in a High School, in the State Network of Paudalho. The results obtained from the proposed discussions and practical activities contributed to the knowledge on the issue of environmental problems caused by inadequate disposal of materials, as well as to the awareness of the need to reuse and recycle waste, thus contributing to the preservation of the environment.
