Un centro educativo es una de las instituciones más importes de la sociedad, ya que este es el lugar donde las nuevas generaciones adquieren todo tipo de conocimiento que les servirá para la vida adulta. Sin embargo, la arquitectura de las Instalaciones Educativas en el Perú es la menos desarrollada, encontrándose estancada en los modelos arquitectónicos del siglo XX. El propósito de este documento es presentar las bases necesarias para diseñar una Institución Educativa de inicial, primaria y secundaria en el distrito de San Juan de Lurigancho que responda a las metodologías educativas actuales y, al mismo tiempo, responda a la normatividad correspondiente que el Ministerio de Educación busca implementar. Asimismo, se trata de demostrar la importancia de incluir equipamiento complementario de uso compartido, ya sea con fines educativos, deportivos o culturales, que integren y refuercen el vínculo del colegio con el resto de la ciudad. / A school is one of the most important institutions in society, since this is the place where the new generations acquire all kinds of knowledge that will serve them for adult life. However, the architecture of the Educational Facilities in Peru is the least developed, finding itself stagnant in the architectural models of the 20th century. The purpose of this document is to present the necessary bases to design an initial, primary and secondary Educational Institution in the district of San Juan de Lurigancho that responds to current educational methodologies and, at the same time, responds to the corresponding regulations that the Ministry of Education seeks to implement. Likewise, it is about demonstrating the importance of including complementary equipment for shared use, whether for educational, sports or cultural purposes, that integrates and strengthens the school's link with the rest of the city. / Tesis

Actualmente en el Perú, existe un déficit sustancial en el sistema educativo el cual se ve reflejado en los distintos rankings mundiales sobre educación y en la estadística. Este déficit está ocasionado por múltiples factores, por ejemplo, la poca capacitación del personal docente, la falta de materiales pedagógicos en las instituciones, un sistema administrativo inadecuado, entre otros. Además de los mencionados previamente, existe un factor que compete directamente al urbanismo y a la arquitectura: la alta brecha en infraestructura educativa en el país. La falta de infraestructura educativa de calidad, en definitiva, es uno de los principales causantes del déficit de educación. Esto se debe a que las poblaciones en edad escolar no tienen un espacio al que acudir todos los días a estudiar y aprender. Incluso si se analizan los centros educativos existentes cualitativamente, los mismos, no cumplen con los requerimientos esenciales para llevar a cabo una buena educación, moderna. Es por ello que como proyecto de tesis se realizará un colegio público. Este documento tiene como objetivo analizar un entorno en donde esté presente la brecha de infraestructura educativa. De esta manera, se podrá cuantificar la necesidad, así como contemplar y tomar en cuenta todos los factores que influyen en el diseño de una edificación. El análisis está organizado en 4 capítulos: presentación del tema, proyectos referenciales, programación arquitectónica y terreno y expediente urbano. En cada uno de los capítulos se expondrá información competente al tema. Todo ello con el fin de realizar posteriormente arquitectura real y adecuada. / At the present time, in Peru, there is a substantial deficit in the educational system, which can be seen reflected in the statistics of world education rankings. This deficit is caused by multiple factors, such as the lack of teacher capacitation, the lack of pedagogical material in institutions, an inadequate administrative system, amongst others. Besides from the problems previously mentioned, there is an existing factor that is directly involved with urban planning and architecture: the enormous gap in educational infrastructure in the country. The lack of quality educational infrastructure, in definitive, is one of the main causes for the national educational deficit. This is due to the fact that population in the school-age range do not have a space in which they can study and learn every day. It is important to mention that the ones that actually exist do not meet the essential requirements to offer an appropriate and modern education. This is why the thesis project developed in this current document is a public school. The purpose of this document is to analyse the surroundings in which the educational gap is present. In this way, it will be possible to measure the current necessity, and take in consideration all the multiple factors that influence in the design of an edification. The analysis is organized in 4 chapters: theme presentation, referential projects, architectural programming and terrain, and urban record. Each of the chapters will expose relevant information in relation to the subject, with the purpose of carrying out real and adequate architecture later on. / Tesis

This thesis explores the relationship between the plurality of polyphonic and independent voices and consciousnesses, a Mikhail Bakhtin's concept, in two plays by Lope de Vega. El maestro de Danzar y El bobo del colegio are two of his least known and studied. Both plays present protagonists, simple citizens, which pretend to court two noble ladies. Under these circumstances, they are forced to avoid social rejection, issue guaranteed by their humble lineage. In order to complete their undertaking, they disguise as a dance teacher and a university fool. This process shields them from, the above mentioned, traditional disapproval they are subject to. It also entitles them to become, symbolically and virtually, the main dialogic executors in the play. Bakhtin depicts the process of embracing an alternate identity, different from their own, as a vital part of carnival. It compels the leading characters, El maestro and El bobo being no exception, to undergo two changes. First, they become a new individual, recognizable only to those who are aware of their masks. Second, their voices attract attention to the point of influencing the preeminent nobles of the comedy to follow their lead. Further, their ideas come to matter more than those of any other voice in the comedy. In the beginning they follow an ideal, and are subdued by social hierarchy. At the conclusion, they finish leading and controlling the polyphonic relationship between the independent voices and consciousnesses of the other characters in the play. And rather than a conflict, both comedies depict a harmonic social interaction of all their characters. Although scholarship exists analyzing individual plays, a comprehensive study of the effective association between language and disguise favoring a villano over high-class citizens has never been undertaken. This is Lope's strategy to plainly contrast the traditional social differentiation of classes.

La sacristía del antiguo Colegio Máximo de San Pablo es considerada uno de los más grandes exponentes del barroco limeño. Según los estudios de Vargas Ugarte, Bailey y Wuffarden, se sabe que los azulejos de la mencionada sacristía son del siglo XVII. Sin embargo, pese a que estudiosos del arte virreinal, como el ya mencionado Bailey, consideran a dichos azulejos una importante obra de arte, estos no han sido estudiados ni en su aspecto artístico ni en su materialidad. La presente tesis busca llenar estos vacíos. Así, se contextualizan los azulejos de la sacristía tanto en su entorno físico como en el contexto espiritual de la orden jesuita en Lima. Posteriormente, se estudia el repertorio decorativo, el origen y sentido de las imágenes, así como se relacionan estas con los personajes retratados en los azulejos y los ideales de la orden jesuita, para concluir que se trataría de un camino a la santidad mediante la vida misionera y el perfeccionamiento espiritual. Finalmente, se estudia la materialidad de los azulejos, lo que nos lleva a concluir que son limeños y no sevillanos y, por sus características artísticas, se propone a Juan del Corral como su posible autor

Thus, women should not only deal with the house and employees, she had to be nice at meetings and therefore it has become necessary to learn how to read, write, talk about music, painting and learn the rules of etiquette and everything that fits a lady in society. It was necessary a new profile for women suitable for this new society, without compromising their soul, moral and religion. The model of education followed by these young women of society was French, because it represented a good education without vocational, modern or feminists ideas. This study is about the Portuguese language program taught at Colégio Nossa Senhora de Sion between 1944 and 1947 in order to analyze the way Linguistics was taught in that women s institution. Besides the analysis of Portuguese material found at Sion, a historical, cultural and social investigation from the end of 19th century to the 1st half of the 20th century was made, aiming at understanding a woman s behavior, her role in the society and the reason for São Paulo elite s choice of catholic institutions for their daughter s education, future ladies of society. 11 The História das Idéias Lingüistícas (the History of Linguistic Ideas) was chosen as theoretical basis in order to support this dissertation, in such way that Linguistics and History are interconnected in the course of this study / O final do século XIX trouxe muitos avanços para a sociedade paulista e, por acompanhar esses progressos, a elite passou a exigir uma educação mais requintada para suas filhas, pois não mais podiam elas se comportar de acordo com a tradição colonial portuguesa em moda até então , isso não combinava mais com a sociedade urbanizada. Assim, não caberia mais à mulher somente a função de dirigir a casa e os empregados, era preciso que fosse agradável nas reuniões e para isso tornava-se necessário aprender a ler, escrever, conversar, conhecer regras de etiqueta, música, pintura e tudo o que coubesse a uma dama da sociedade. Era preciso moldar um novo perfil de mulher adequado a essa nova sociedade, com uma educação voltada para o social sem que se comprometesse a alma, a moral e a religiosidade. O francês foi o modelo escolhido para a educação das jovens burguesas, pois representava garantia de boa educação sem idéias profissionalizantes, modernas ou feministas. Ao delimitarmos o corpus, selecionamos os programas dos exames das provas de Língua Portuguesa do Colégio Nossa Senhora de Sion, do Curso Pré-Normal, no período que se estende de 1944 a 1947, a fim de verificar como os saberes lingüísticos eram transmitidos nesta Instituição Confessional feminina. Além da análise do material de português encontrado no Sion, fez-se um levantamento histórico, cultural e social do final do século XIX, até a primeira metade do século XX, com o objetivo de entender como se portava a mulher nesse período, que função tinha na sociedade, e por que a escolha de Instituições Católicas pela elite paulista para o ensino de suas filhas, futuras damas da sociedade. Optou-se pela escolha da História das Idéias Lingüísticas (Auroux, Fávero, Orlandi) como vertente teórica para subsidiar esta dissertação, proporcionando entendimento em relação ao vernáculo, de modo que lingüística e história estão interligadas no decorrer deste trabalho

Leaving from our research object, the novel O Ateneu, from Raul Pompéia, through the memories of Sérgio, the protagonist, revealed the function of one of the best colleges in Rio de Janeiro of the XIX century: austere discipline and basic mistakes not apparent at fathers eyes who were sending their children to study in the boarding school. So, we like to answer the next question: might we understand that the character Sérgio reveals Pompéia, as soon as he reproduces the characteristics of his creator? The identity of the character, trought the memory, can be seen as a projection of the author? The narrative elaborated of Sérgio perspective, already ripened through his impressions and sharp perception, analyses facts and situations that structured the social environment of the boarding school. The episodes served how revealed successive of the corruption and the moral misery that they were ruling in the traditional College Abílio, that it was frequented by Pompéia. In this sense, it was possible to draw a parallel between this work and Os Maias and A Reliquia of Eça de Queiroz, since they show the importance of the education in the life s formation of Carlos Eduardo and Teodorico, that, unfortunately, little used it, because the first one, although it had an exemplary education financed by his grandfather, surrendered to the enchantments of his sister Maria Eduarda, that after surviving the incest and killed Afonso of displeasure; already the second used an education hypocritical and religious to inherit the fortune of his aunt, Sr.ͣ Patrocínio, and was unmasked through a relic. All the novels wanted to show the importance of the education in the formation of people. Therefore, it was realized a research in a real establishment: the College Caraça, which worked like boarding school and seminar during the XIX century, to make a possible demonstration of model education; concern it was of Ramalho Ortigão with his children and his grandchildren / Trata-se de uma análise do processo educacional na formação da juventude no séc. XIX, tomando por base as obras ficcionais de um escritor brasileiro e de um português, além do conhecimento in loco e de textos a respeito do antigo Colégio Caraça, modelo na época, situado em Minas Gerais. Partindo do nosso objeto de pesquisa, o romance O Ateneu, de Raul Pompéia, por meio das memórias de Sérgio, o protagonista, revelou o funcionamento de um dos melhores colégios cariocas do século XIX: disciplina austera e erros básicos não aparentes aos olhos dos pais, que enviavam seus filhos para estudar no internato. Assim, desejamos responder à seguinte questão: poderíamos entender que a personagem Sérgio revela Pompéia, uma vez que reproduz as características de seu criador? A identidade da personagem, pela memória, pode ser vista como uma projeção do autor? A narrativa elaborada a partir da perspectiva de Sérgio, já amadurecido por meio de suas impressões e percepção aguda, analisa fatos e situações, que estruturaram o ambiente social do internato. Os episódios serviram como desvelamentos sucessivos da corrupção e da miséria moral que imperavam no tradicional Colégio Abílio, do Barão de Macaúbas, colégio esse freqüentado por Pompéia. Nesse sentido, foi possível traçar um paralelo entre essa obra e Os Maias e A Relíquia, de Eça de Queiroz, pois retratam a importância da educação na formação da vida das personagens Carlos Eduardo e Teodorico que, infelizmente, pouco a aproveitaram, pois o primeiro, embora tivesse uma educação exemplar financiada pelo seu avô, rendeu-se aos encantos de Maria Eduarda; que, posteriormente descobrirá ser sua irmã, vivendo o incesto e matando Afonso da Maia de desgosto; já o segundo utilizou-se da educação hipócrita e religiosa recebida para herdar os bens de sua tia, Sr.ͣ Patrocínio, tendo sido desmascarado por meio de uma relíquia. Todos os romances desejaram mostrar a importância da educação na formação das pessoas. Por isso, foi realizada também uma pesquisa em um estabelecimento de ensino real: o Colégio Caraça, que funcionou como internato e seminário durante o século XIX, para tornar possível a demonstração de uma educação modelo; preocupação que era também a de Ramalho Ortigão com seus filhos e seus netos

Withim this topic, it is possible to deal with different subjects as teacher formation, teacher training school, catholic education, woman and salesian education, alphabetization and gender relation. In order to show the specific teacher profile that was being formed in this catholic institution, pedagogical proposals, objectives, curriculums, school daily, obtained results, layman and catholic references of education developed in this Institution were analysed. Besides, this research presents the value of bringing elements from the past which can be considered nowadays in the pedagogical proposal of Colégio de Santa Inês and to understand what characterized, in the period mentioned, the pedagogical project used in the Escola Normal Livre anexa ao Colégio de Santa Inês and which were the main principles that guided this project, there is a question that guides the research and it is about what the catholic pedagogy was and in what it differred from the layman pedagogy. It is supposed that, as a catholic institution, the Teacher Training School mentioned above, had recourses to religious teaching that supported it and had also recourses to the methods from oficial layman institutions where the pedagogy of the Escola Nova was developed adjusting itself to the educative pattern of the congregation. To this research, the school chronicles, the historical book from the Teacher Training Course and the School Office documents were used. Most of the information refers to the internal life of the Institution. As a conclusion, with this study, it is possible to say that this school followed seriously its organization and working as it was waited as a normal school and assumed in its pedagogical practice the methods of the catholic pedagogy and elements from the Escola Nova pedagogy / Nesta pesquisa, o enfoque recai sobre a atuação educativa das Irmãs Salesianas no Brasil, desenvolvida na Escola Normal Livre Anexa ao Colégio de Santa Inês para a formação de professoras, entre os anos de 1927 (quando da aprovação, obtida do governo estadual, da escola normal livre anexa ao colégio de Santa Inês nos moldes da Lei 2.269 de 31 de dezembro de 1927) a 1937 (início do Estado Novo). Por essa temática, dialoga com assuntos como formação de professores, escola normal, educação católica, educação feminina, educação salesiana, alfabetização e relação de gênero. Ao se examinarem as propostas pedagógicas, objetivos, currículos, cotidiano escolar, resultados obtidos, referências leigas e católicas de educação desenvolvidos nessa Instituição, pretende-se desvelar o perfil específico de professora que foi sendo formado nessa instituição católica. Além disso, esta pesquisa tem o valor de trazer do passado elementos que podem ser atualmente considerados na proposta pedagógica do Colégio de Santa Inês. Para compreender o que caracterizou, no período em foco, o projeto pedagógico implementado na Escola Normal Livre anexa ao Colégio de Santa Inês, quais eram os princípios fundamentais que o orientava, a pergunta que orienta a pesquisa versa sobre o que era a pedagogia católica e no que ela diferia da pedagogia laica? A hipótese é que, como uma instituição católica, a referida Escola Normal valia-se dos pressupostos religiosos que a sustentava, mas também de métodos de instituições oficiais laicas, nas quais se desenvolvia a pedagogia da Escola Nova, conformando-a ao padrão educativo congregacional. Como principais fontes de pesquisa são utilizadas as crônicas da casa, o livro histórico do Curso Normal e os documentos da Secretaria Escolar. A maioria dos dados refere-se à vida interna da Instituição. Com o estudo, pôde-se concluir que esta escola, não só na sua organização e funcionamento seguiu rigorosamente o que então era esperado de uma escola normal, como sua prática pedagógica assumiu, além dos métodos da pedagogia católica, elementos da pedagogia da Escola Nova

[pt] Este trabalho visa a estudar a influência da Reforma Benjamin Constant no currículo de matemática do Colégio Pedro II. Benjamin Constant foi professor e Ministro da Instrução, dos Correios e Telégrafos, em 1890-1. Ele quis reformar o ensino brasileiro, desde a escola primária até os cursos superiores. Essa Reforma teve caráter enciclopédico, inchando de conteúdos os programas das disciplinas, sobretudo os de matemática. O Colégio Pedro II foi criado em 1837-8 para servir de modelo ao ensino secundário brasileiro, que se caracterizou por dirigir-se à elite socioeconômica; na prática, o Colégio não correspondeu bem à expectativa inicial. A Reforma alterou os programas de matemática do Colégio; dentre outras modificações, introduziu neles, a partir de 1895, noções de cálculo diferencial e integral. Para analisar a influência da Reforma nos mencionados programas, o trabalho compara os currículos vigentes de 1880 a 1890 aos posteriores (1890- 1900). As bases teórico-metodológicas da pesquisa são Ivor Goodson e Jean- François Sirinelli. O trabalho visa, ainda, a caracterizar Benjamin Constant como intelectual e a examinar se e como esse seu status teria influído na Reforma. A pesquisa usa numerosos documentos: atos normativos (como os decretos que instituíram reformas educacionais no Império e no início da República), documentos curriculares (programas de matemática do Colégio Pedro II) e documentos produzidos pelo próprio B. Constant. / [en] This paper intends to study the influence of the Benjamin Constant Reform in the Mathematics curriculum of the Pedro II School. Benjamin Constant was a Mathematics teacher and the Head of the Instruction, Mail and Telegraph Ministry (1890-1). He intended to reform all levels of Brazilian education and decreed the Reform named after him. The Reform had an encyclopedic nature, inflating the content of the programs for each subject, especially the one for Mathematics. The Pedro II School was founded in 1837-8 to serve as a model for Brazilian secondary education, which was characterized as targeted to the social/economical elite; however, the School does not seem to have fulfilled the initial expectations. The Reform altered the Mathematics syllabus of the Pedro II School; among other changes, it added, from 1895 on, notions of differential and integral calculus. To analyze the influence of the Reform in the aforementioned syllabi, this paper compares the Mathematics curriculum in use in 1880-1890 to the ones used later on (1890-1900). The theoretical and methodological bases for this research were Ivor Goodson and Jean-François Sirinelli. The paper also aims to establish Benjamin Constant as an intellectual, and to examine if and how this status would have affected the Reform. The research uses several documents: normative acts (such as the decrees that established educational reforms in Brazil, during the Empire and in the early Republic), curriculum documents (Mathematics syllabi of the Pedro II School in the 1880-1900 period) and documents produced by B. Constant himself.
