Abstract: Abstract This poster, and the following included in this publication have been realized by the teachers attending the “TFA” School for secondary school teachers held at the Politecnico di Milano during the academic year 2012/2013. The work presented here refers to the results of the Laboratorio di Disegno e Rappresentazione Geometrica (literally Drawing and Graphic Representation Studio), a course dealing with the educational foundations of visual representation taught by the author mentioned above. The main focus was on the processes of teaching and learning Graphic Representation, on its use and on the support that this matter could give to the students in the field of Technology. We debated about the relationship between Reality and Representation and about the power of Graphic Representation as instrument of knowledge and invention. Basing on the activities really carried on in class, by the teachers with secondary school students, the poster summarizes and shows some fundamental concepts of Graphic Representation, especially the phenomenon of Projection/Section, which is the base of Proiective and Descriptive Geometry, emphasizing the connection among experiment, experience and abstraction. The following comments are related to the corresponding figures in the poster.
