Learning in art and cellphone: personal and technical looks mediated by interactive experience with digital photography

Abstract

This work has as its theme the forms of personal and technical interaction that were constituted in the learning in Art with the use of mobile devices. Looking to answer the following problem: What interactions are formed in learning in Art with mobile devices? In order to constitute this study, the notions of interaction and experience were articulated according to John Dewey applied in the triangular approach in the teaching of Art conceived by Ana Mae Barbosa. This article is a cross-section of a research that was done in partnership with a teacher-mediator of Art in a State School, through an intervention research with 42 adolescents and young people between 15 and 20 years. During the research, interventions (4 photographic challenges) were carried out to improve technical-aesthetic perception in Art, and the photographs of authorship of these young people were organized in an exhibition, involving the whole school community. Data were collected with the field diary instruments, questionnaires, interviews and focus groups besides the audiovisual and photographic record. We perform the categorial analysis focusing on the interaction during the learning in Art / Education. As results, we obtain a large imaging scope produced by the participants about their realities and the school itself, besides a methodological trail that can help in the use of these technologies to other professionals. But in focus, we elucidate the potential of artistic creation with mobile devices, the perception of a sensitivity in the aesthetic look when producing photos and the group collaboration.
