Abstract

This article brings a brief analysis of the educational world within the city of Macaparana, located in the Northeast of Brazil. Based on data collected in this county about the interaction between the community and the school equipment and its usage, this study looked for a better understanding required to create a set of guidelines in order to improve the architectonic model of the schools in the county, seeking to redesign its structure and make it more suitable to its broad service to the community: the learning and sociability of the space.
