Its objective was to register relevant contributions for the development of an Educational Method, which integrates theory and practice in the classroom’s context, as a building Knowledge site. The proposed method was born from the Traditional Seminar, in addition to many other Educational dynamics. This paper is about an Action-Research lead with six groups in the years of 2002 to 2004. It raised reflections concerning the Teach-Learning process and resulted in the proposal of a new Teaching Method obtained from lived experience. Of the some results of this experience it can be detached: the biggest interaction between the students, greater security front to the activities and the learning of the activity of research during the search for theoretical and practical contents. |
