A aprendizagem baseada em problemas (PBL) e a sua aplicação no trabalho de conclusão de curso (TCC) da arquitetura e urbanismo da Universidade Federal de Juiz de Fora

Abstract

However, in the literature, there are few investigations about the use of PBL in the field of teaching architecture and urbanism. Therefore, this work aims to investigate the relevance of applying the methodology in Undergraduate Theses (TCC) in Architecture and Urbanism courses. To carry out such an investigation, the course of the Federal University of Juiz de Fora was used as a context of study. performing as a methodology, there was an exploratory work through a quantitative-qualitative survey. Through a literature review, the principles of application of PBL were raised and subsequent characterization in the practical-professional and academic context of Architecture and Urbanism were treated. After that, 180 TCCs developed over 11 years were part of the sample. With this, it was observed that PBL has a high synergy with TCC, especially when it comes to proximity to professional practice. However, although there is this consonance, it is concluded that the adoption of PBL could be expanded with the discussion regarding the obligation of the TCC to be done individually.
