Promoção da Aprendizagem Significativa no contexto da saúde, educação e cultura

The Meaningful Learning Theory proposes the construction of knowledge by valuing students' previous experiences. The objective was to report the promotion of meaningful learning in the context of health, education and culture based on artistic manifestations. This is a report of experience about the Pedagogical Intervention Project “Literary Coffee: Adolescents in Action - Protagonists of their own history”, which took place between February and May 2019 with high school students from a public institution in the rural area of Bahia, Brazil. The use of poetry, dramatization, dance and music as pedagogical tools instigated artistic skills among students, making them protagonists in the construction of knowledge. The students expressed their concerns and realized the role of the teacher as a notable mediator. It was evidenced the importance of art in promoting meaningful learning in the context of health, education and culture.
