Abstract

The article describes the workshop called “Acoustics – Sensitization of acoustic phenomena”, conceived as a first contact for beginning students in the graduation in Architecture and Urbanism at the Faculty of Architecture and Urbanism of the University of São Paulo - FAUUSP - with the aim of presenting the basic concepts related to sound propagation and architectural acoustics. With a didactic proposal integrating active learning methodologies with the use of tools such as three-dimensional models, the objective of the workshop was to enable the student to understand the main acoustic phenomena that impact architectural projects. The activities carried out are presented, as well as the results achieved, positively evaluated through questionnaires applied to participating students.
