Abstract
This report concerns on action research within the scope of a professional internshipthat took place at Escola Secundária de Sá da Bandeira, in Santarém, in the 2022/23 academic
period. The supervised internship followed the educational experience carried out with a 9th
grade class, in the subject of Visual Education, through the teaching unit “Reinterpretation of
Works of Art by Pablo Picasso”, with the aim of students having direct contact with works of
art, namely the approach to content related to Modern Art and Contemporary Art.
With the aim of developing a different teaching unit from what the students were used
to, motivating strategies were implemented in order to develop their autonomy, such as diverse
and creative teaching materials and a school trip to the Museu de Arte Contemporânea (CCB)
with the purpose of inspiring the students about the topic. Using the chosen work of art and
each one’s personal reinterpretation as a reference, the students produced their own project
in the classroom, with the support and material of their choice.
This dissertation begins with a theoretical framework, where the following themes are
studied: the importance of visual arts in the teaching and learning process; the paradigm of
artistic education: expressive-psychoanalytic model; the context of the developing child;
contact with works of art as a resource in the classroom; learning and motivation; education
and autonomy.
It was possible to assess, through data collection, that the strategies contributed to
cultural enrichment and motivation and provided a significant increase in autonomy of
students. They also developed skills in reading works of art, acquired knowledge about modern
and contemporary art, and developed their aesthetic sense and creativity.
