COSTA, Humberto  e  STOLTZ, Tania. Significations of Aesthetics: challenges for aesthetic education based on a higher education course in Design. Rev. Diálogo Educ. [online]. 2019, vol.19, n.61, pp.777-791.  Epub 31-Jan-2020. ISSN 1981-416X.  https://doi.org/10.7213/1981-416x.19.061.ao03.

This research aimed to identify the meanings of Aesthetics among students of a higher degree in Design, in view of Aesthetic Education. This is a research of a qualitative and exploratory-descriptive nature. The methods used were the bibliographic review and a case study. The field of study was a Superior Technological Course (CST) in Design and the students of said course constituted the target audience of the research. In the case study the online questionnaire was used to collect the data. Given the qualitative nature of the data, the "meaning nuclei" method was used to analyze them. Three nuclei of meanings of Aesthetics were identified: 1) Aesthetics is appearance; 2) Aesthetics as aesthetic categories; 3) Aesthetics as sensitive knowledge. The present research, by identifying the meanings of aesthetics according to the vision of the students of a superior course in Design, offers means to understand and structure an Aesthetic education that allows integrating Aesthetics, Design and Education, with a view to aesthetically educate the man to develop their freedom.
