DRAWING AND MANUAL CREATION OF OBJECTS AT SCHOOL AND IN LIFE - Rubén Clairat Wilson - Bog

The book begins with the idea of integrating freehand drawing as a source of manual creation at school and in society through the process of designing, constructing and making objects with irregular profiles as premises for developing observation and location in space, the creative capacity of thought, abstraction and imagination. Different procedures are presented for the tracing of angles and their division, squares, rectangles, ovals, circles and their division into different parts, all freehand, that is, without the intervention of instruments, as well as the methods of tracing and grids to enlarge or reduce figures.In a second moment, the book pays careful attention to handicrafts and their incorporation in the study plans and programs of Labor Education for the schools of the general education subsystem and in the training of Labor Education teachers at the university. It also reflects on the activity of planning as a hierarchical quality and skill, unique to human beings in the process of constructing objects.
