General  descrip9on  of  the  module  The  students  are  working  in  mixed  groups  of  4  (2  grads  and  2  undergrads).    They  are  supported  by  lecturers  and  teachers  from  different  backgrounds.  Their  tasks  are  to  define  the  problem,  develop  the  project  and  interact  with  stakeholders.  Peri-­‐urban  landscapes  present  experimental  possibili(es  for  new  approaches  in  design  and  planning  in  a  mul(func(onal  perspec(ve,  incorpora(ng  environmental  values  and  local  tradi(ons.  Focusing  on  Guara(ba  neighborhood,  which  is  located  on  Rio  de  Janeiro’s  outskirts,  this  module  aims  to  study  design  alterna(ves  for  urban  expansion  taking  into  account  the  neighborhood  socio-­‐environmental  dynamics  and  its  fragile  landscape.      

Cross  faculty  collabora9on  Cross  faculty  collabora(on  occurs  mainly  through  the  faculty  staff:  Architecture  and  Urbanism;  Law  and  Fine  Arts.  They  comprise  a  mul(disciplinary  background:  architects,  landscape  architects,  urban  designers,  urban  planners,  lawyers,  sociologists.  The  interlevel  approach,  though,  contributed  from  the  start  to  reveal  each  student  individual  contribu(ons  as  a  valuable  source  of  different  experiences  and  views  about  both  planning  and  the  area  of  interven(on.

Involvement  of  local  stakeholders  The  stakeholders  involved  in  the  module  are  local  government  representa(ves;  resident  associa(ons;  professional  associa(ons  and  public  agencies  of  urban  development.  They  are  representa(ve  of  the  main  actors  in  the  process.  These  are:  Municipal  Secretary  of  Environment;  Municipal  Secretary  of  Urbanism;  Si(o  Burle  Marx  Founda(on;  local  residents  associa(on;  IPHAN  -­‐  Na(onal  Historic  and  Ar(s(c  Heritage  Ins(tute.  They  are  expected  to  par(cipate  in  the  modules  mee(ngs,  sharing  experiences  and  demands  in  order  to  achieve  feasible  socio-­‐environmental  design  strategies.  

Students  Our  ini(al  assessment  was  that  PBL  methodology  and  the  World  Café  were  both  very  well  received  by  the  students.  Their  different  backgrounds  contributed  to  a  rich  mix  while  they  were  sharing  informa(on  during  the  café.      

World  Café  Our  World  Café  was  implemented  in  the  second  session  of  the  course.  It  was  used  as  a  sort  of  brainstorming  session,  taking  advantage  of  the  students  background  with  drawing  and  architects’  usual  habit  of  drawing  in  paper  tablecloths  in  actual  cafés  to  discuss  the  students  previous  knowledge  of  Guara(ba  and  their  ini(al  moves  towards  gathering  and  sharing  informa(on  and  design  views  prior  to  visi(ng  the  area.
