THE TEACHING OF THE JESUITS AT THE UNIVERSITY OF ÉVORA - THE DIDACTIC USE OF TILES AT THE COLLEGE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT

ABSTRACT

In this work, we describe the phases of covering the classrooms of Colégio do Espirito Santo with tiles and establish the relationship between the panels and the teaching. In a pedagogical environment in which the image was rare in the manuals, the panels added a new dimension to teaching, motivated students and complemented the learning of the contents. As sources we use the tiles of the University classrooms, the manuals used in teaching and descriptions made about the college.
