RESUMO: A implantação de grandes empreendimentos em regiões específicas dos grandes centros urbanos, promove o deslocamento da população de baixa renda para zonas periféricas, devido ao aumento dos preços dos imóveis no local. Essa mudança ocorre muitas vezes sem qualquer tipo de planejamento de mobilidade e infraestrutura, o que aumenta o índice de acidentes e lentidão de tráfego. Algumas cidades, como é o caso de Belém/ PA, estão localizadas na região amazônica, rodeada por rios que podem ser utilizados como alternativa de mobilidade para a redução destas questões. Este trabalho, tem como objetivo verificar a percepção qualitativa do usuário sobre o meio de transporte rodoviário que interliga duas regiões da cidade (uma no centro, e uma na região periférica), bem como avaliar a o interesse dos passageiros por um meio de transporte aquaviário auxiliando na mobilidade urbana. Foram aplicados questionários para obtenção de opinião popular com questionamentos acerca de indicadores de qualidade obtidos em referencial bibliográfico, e também a respeito da implantação de um modal alternativo. Os resultados demonstram grande precariedade na qualidade do serviço prestado ao usuário do modal rodoviário que interliga zonas periféricas e zonas centrais da cidade, bem como a grande receptividade da população residente da zona periférica a respeito da implantação do transporte aquaviário, realizando o mesmo trajeto que hoje só é feito pelas vias terrestres. Os diagnósticos obtidos, podem embasar futuras políticas públicas para desenvolvimento da mobilidade na cidade.  ABSTRACT: The implementation of large enterprises in specific regions on urban centers, leads to the displacement of low-income population to peripheral zones, due to the increase of prices of properties on that place. This fact often occurs without any kind of mobility and infrastructure planning, which increases the rate of accidents and slow traffic. Some cities, such as Belém / PA, are located inside the Amazon region, surrounded by rivers that can be used as mobility alternatives to reduce these issues. This paper, therefore, aims to verify the qualitative perception of the population about the road transportation that interconnects two regions of the city (one in the center, and one in the peripheral region), as well as evaluate the interest of the passengers about river transportation aiding urban mobility. Questionnaires were used to obtain popular opinion about quality indicators, taken from bibliographic references, and also regarding to the implementation of an alternative modal. The results show a great precariousness in the quality of the service provided to the user of the road modal that interconnects peripheral and central zones of the city, as well as the great receptivity of the resident population of the peripheral zone in terms of the implantation of the waterway transport, carrying out the same route that today it is only made by land. The diagnoses obtained, can support future public policies for the development of mobility in the city.

This research aims to present the pedagogical methodology applied in the discipline of Urban Transport based on the methods of active learning in the teaching of transport of the Faculty of Civil Engineering. The method applies student response mechanisms regarding adherence to the proposed activities and content using team-based and project-based learning, problem-solving, gamification and case study. The results highlight that 60% met the deadline for the delivery of the activities, the students obtained grades close to the maximum limit, whose focus was the relationship with the team, and in the group activities the overall score was higher than the individual one. It is concluded, therefore, that the use of active methodologies in the teaching of transportation in this discipline contributed to an active, participatory, collaborative and interactive pedagogical approach centered on the student, however, the challenge is to stimulate their engagement in group activities, attend to the learning and evaluation processes of the discipline, as well as the student's approval in this curricular component.
