Abstract (english text)

This paper aims to introduce a teaching experience using geodesign as a method that favors the co-creation process and the use of alternative urban parameters, in an academic graduate course about urban planning at a local scale, in Architecture and Urbanism School. In the current scenario, cities growth is oriented by the perspective of cars, by land speculation and urban sprawl. As a result, it is observed the progressive loss of the human dimension in the urban space. The students were stimulated to think about the street functions and on the possibility of measuring urban quality with alternative parameters: the Completeness Indicators. Thus, aiming to develop solutions more adapted to the reality of the area and according to the collaborative contemporary practices urban planning themethodological approach was divided into two steps. In the first step, urban parameters and urban designs were elaborated, without using Completeness Indicators, and for the second step the participants used the indicators to support and describe the ideas. Both steps were conducted in a workshop format using the web-based Brazilian geodesign platform, the GISColab. The need for changes in the urban planning paradigm highlights the need for citizen participation and the role of the urban planner as a decoder of the collective goals. Finally, the results showed that there was a maturation of the students’ critical thinking about the proposals made, as well as the impacts of the proposals considering the human dimension and the quality of urban space.
