MASETTO, Marcos Tarciso. Inovação na aula universitária: espaço de pesquisa, construção de conhecimento interdisciplinar, espaço de aprendizagem e tecnologias de comunicação. Perspectiva [online]. 2011, vol.29, n.02, pp.597-620. ISSN 0102-5473.

Taking into consideration the scenario of a Society of Knowledge, this article aims at reflecting on the new demands and the possible innovations of university lessons. We worked on four demands which we considered the most relevant ones: university lessons as room for research, interdisciplinary knowledge construction, learning development, and space and time for the use of communication and information technology. Each of the four demands was analyzed and provided suggestions for possible innovations. The purpose of this article is to put under discussion the idea of taking concrete actions in order to dynamize university lessons by adopting concrete procedures of innovation. The method used was action-reflection on the pedagogical practice of university professors. We work with three groups of professors, from three different areas: engineering, education, and dentistry. Each of these three groups planned lessons which focused on research, interdisciplinary knowledge, and communication technology integrated to the learning processes of their students’ learning. Critical reflection on such practice allowed some adjustments. This article presents the conclusions we draw on those pedagogical practices and the reflections on them. Moreover, as a conclusion of the interactions among professors with a view to innovating university lessons, we could notice that subliminally to all suggested innovations there is the need to create and maintain a personal and adult professor-student interaction as fundamental and indispensable element. In such a broad scenario, the demands and suggestions for innovation of university lessons open room for a dialogue on the proposed theme, which, we wish, could be analyzed and enriched by our readers.
