  • Synergies between creative strategies and participatory behaviors in workplace training
    Publication . Varela, Teresa
    This article reflects on analyzing and understanding the articulation between creative processes in art education and the development of training for a culture of social and cultural citizenship. The methodology of projects developed in Workplace Training over two academic years involved two 12th-grade secondary specialized art classes. The realization of the projects, based on the action-research methodology, sought the student's participation and involvement in the decision- making of the activities as co-authors in their learning and cooperation with the teachers. Direct observation and interviews with the participants were the main instruments for the data collection. The analysis data used the NVivo program. This study argues on the sociocultural theories of creativity (Glăveanu, 2013; Beghetto, 2016), citizenship and educational contexts (Eça, 2010; Caetano & Freire, 2014), and the context of Art Education (Eça et al., 2012; Eça, 2014; Ramirez, 2016). The main results revealed an interdependent relationship between creative processes and citizenship practices, increased knowledge, and capacities capable of promoting collaborative creativity (Burnard & Dragovic, 2015). These results will allow this relational dynamic to develop and transform through social interactions and situated contexts, with evidence of communication between all those involved, with openness to social and cultural diversity, to generate other possibilities for synergy.
  • Interconnections between creative processes, citizenship practices in activities in training in work context
    Publication . Varela, Teresa
    This poster aims to reflect the need to realize new activities involving interconnections between creative processes and citizenship practices in learning Artistic Education practices. As well as understand the impact of the activities on the construction of learning and pedagogical actions from the perspective and voice structures of the students, where teachers become more involved in questioning visual culture and artistic practices that provide students with a search for knowledge of themselves and the other, collectively. A study was carried out on the curricular activities of two 12th-grade classes, integrated into Training in Working Context (FCT) projects, in two Artistic Production courses at the António Arroio Art School (EAAA) in the 2018/19 and 2019/20 school years. The methodology used was action research with students and teachers in a class specialized in Plastic Realization of the Spectacle and another specialized in Ceramics. The data collection instruments were based on direct observation and interviews. The analysis was carried out using the NVivo program. This research settled on sociocultural theories of creativity (Glăveanu, 2013; Beghetto, 2016), citizenship and educational contexts (Eça, 2010; Caetano & Freire, 2014), and the context of Art Education (Eça et al., 2012; Eça, 2014; Ramirez, 2016). The main results revealed an interdependent relationship between creative processes and citizenship practices through social interactions, the integral development of the individual, increased knowledge, and creative capacities capable of promoting collaborative creativity (Burnard & Dragovic, 2015). This study shows the need to foster new activities involving these interconnections to understand more profoundly the correlation between creative practices and citizenship practices based on social, cultural, and situational interactions.
