Aprender historia del arte mediante salidas didácticas. Una experiencia en educación superior

Laburpena

In the experience that we present here, students from the University of Murcia left the classrooms for a few hours to carry out a learning located in the history of art through a didactic itinerary on the city of medieval Murcia. In this way, the physical barriers of the classroom are broken and the elements of learning are integrated with the urban landscape through which students pass on to daily. The didactic itinerary started from the city old Kashba, nowadays an enclosed convent, passing through Plaza de Santo Domingo, the old souk plaza; the urban conjunction of "the four corners", where the streets of the main guilds of the city converge; the Cathedral of Murcia, where the remains of the old Al-Jama mosque are preserved; and, finally, in the Monumental Ensemble of San Juan de Dios, where the niche of the mihrab of the old oratory of the medieval Major Kashba is still visible. The results of the research are based on the analysis of a pre-test and a post-test that the students answered about their knowledge of medieval Murcia. The learning progression of the participating students was positive, improving the previous results they had obtained in the pre-test.
