Abstract

In the context of contemporary culture, higher education assumes a strategic role for economic and social development, being recognized not only as a mechanism for social ascension, but also as a space for promoting human emancipation. Considering this emancipatory perspective, this study proposes to reflect on the integration of maker culture and organizational project management concepts in higher education. The research adopted a qualitative approach, using participant observation as a data collection technique, with the subjects being a professor and his students from the Administration course at a Higher Education Institution located in the state of Santa Catarina. The data were analyzed in light of microgenetic analysis, based on the historical-cultural approach. The results show that the inclusion of practices based on maker culture enhances the development of essential skills for the 21st century, such as problem solving, digital literacy, critical thinking and collaboration between peers, contributing to more active, meaningful learning aligned with the demands of contemporary times.
