Description
Summary:Teaching History in Industrial Design degree presents several challenges. One of them is installing a process of reflection, given the dominant technical profile. Another one is teach to the incoming students, in a career recently created (2013) in School of Architecture, Design and Urban Planning of the National University of the Litoral.Our course proposes a cultural approach of the western history, from the Ancient Age to the first Modernity (according to Eric Hobsbawm). This includes the historical context in its political, social and economic aspects; the thought in the field of form and its representations; the material and technical transformations; and the emphasis in the material production, as a „crafted object‟ or an „industrial product‟.Thus, different strategies have been practiced to improve the teaching-learning process: one of chronological development and the other that raises a retrospective. This methods were implemented, each one, for two semesters. In comparison, we were able to employ different points of view regarding the classes, the framing of the seminar debates, the design of the practical activities and the approximation to the bibliography. These points are the purpose of this paper.
