Objectives

 General objective

 Today, photograph is an important tool for exercising the individual and citizenship language.   Understanding the codes and symbols that a smartphone has is essential for producing imagens with aesthetic quality and narrative content.   The workshop intends, in this sense, to provide the paths required for presenting to the elderly student the processes that comprise obtaining, treating and sharing an image inside the mobile phone (or smartphone), thus providing greater autonomy to such age.   Additionally, the course intends to work with symbolic elements, such as:   photograph as memory, revisiting Family albums, repassing family history and understanding what they are from images.   The socialization and integration is another objective to be fulfilled during the thematic practical classes.   The human aspect will be valued on all classes, providing, before the technique, reflections about our own life.
