Influência do desconforto térmico no espaço intraescolar no processo de aprendizagem

Abstract

The learning process can be affected for many reasons, both internal as external to the subject. In this work, we reflect about the thermal discomfort in the intraschool space and your influence in the learning process of students. Specifically, we find to investigate the factors which constitute the thermal discomfort, analyse the relation between the thermal discomfort and the learning process of students and reflect about solutions which can help the school management in order to minimize possible problems of learning process. It is about a qualitative research of theoretical nature, where through a work of literature review about the topic covered, we moot about how the thermal conditions of a classroom can interfere on the teacher's performance and the learning process of students. Also we covered the study of the Givoni’s Psychrometric chart for understanding obtaining methods of thermal comfort on indoor spaces and study of the thermal comfort, for what be known your influence on cognition. The reflections indicated that when a thermal ambient does not situate in a comfort zone, there are compromises in the learning process, that is why the measuring of the air temperature and humidity are important to intervene when these conditions are not at an adequate level. From that, we suggest measures that can be taken by school management in order to search methods the reduce de thermal discomfort in the intraschool space, jutting the importance of dialogued and “mediated” management in the search for an ambient conductive to learning process, including a comfortable and appropriate ambient from a thermal viewpoint.
