Complexo luís câmara cascudo: uma escola de período integral nível fundamental II a médio, Viçosa-RN

Abstract

Education is recognized as one of the fundamental pillars for the human and social development of a nation. That said, full-time schools are proposed as an effective solution for promoting quality and inclusive education, especially in socially vulnerable areas. This Undergraduate Thesis aims to develop a study that will serve as the foundation for implementing an architectural project for a full-time school in the municipality of Viçosa, Rio Grande do Norte. The methodology employed in this study is the deductive method, beginning with the theoretical framework, which will be formulated based on online research and literature, such as Learning Spaces by Diana G. Oblinger and James L. Oblinger (2006) and Arquitetura Escolar: O Projeto do Ambiente de Ensino by Doris Kowaltowski (2011). Additionally, analyses of the current legislation in the municipality of Viçosa, along with official educational sources such as the Ministério da Educação (MEC) and the Fundo Nacional de Desenvolvimento da Educação (FNDE), were conducted. Empirical references were also explored through research on project references, existing regulations, and the physical-environmental analysis of the site. The project culminates with the development of a design based on the analysis of the physical and technical aspects of the intervention area. This process aimed to create a layout that best meets the needs of a school, considering factors such as thermal comfort, lighting, and others. Finally, the outcome of this monograph is the preliminary design of a full-time school for lower and upper secondary education (6th grade to 12th grade) that addresses the needs and particularities of the municipality of Viçosa-RN. The design combines a classical yet modern aesthetic through the use of color and integration with green spaces. Keywords: Architecture. School architecture. Education. Viçosa-RN.
