Teaching and Experimenting with Architectural Design

A Universidade Lusíada de Lisboa concretiza um workshop sobre métodos e avanços tecnológicos na pedagogia


'>


Methods of contemporary architectural education are varied and open to experimentation. Experimentation itself is crucially directed by objectives that legitimise innovation: in science by verifiable truth, in the arts by cultural relevance. What is the objective that directs your experimentation in architectural education and how do you instil this in your students?


Teachers of Architectural Design are invited to a Workshop entitled "Teaching and Experimenting with Architectural Design: Advances in Technology and Changes in Pedagogy" to debate upon possible answers to the above question. The workshop focuses on the impact of new forms of experimentation and the subsequent new conceptions of architectural form have on the teaching of architectural design. Eminent architectural design teachers who experiment with their courses have been invited to present their cases. Teachers of architectural design are invited to contribute to the debates by preparing a paper and poster with their views, ideas, and pedagogical approaches to architectural design. Debates will enhance the two types of contribution and will argue the issues arising.


An abstract of 600-700 words must be submitted by March 23, 2007. You will be asked to submit your final paper by the end of June 2007 for the publication of the proceedings which will be distributed to all EAAE/ENHSA school members. You may organize your abstract by answering the following questions and addressing any of the thematic issues detailed below:

• In what way have the recent technological advances in infor*mation technology influenced the teaching of architectural design in European Schools of Architecture?
  
• Which are the new values and new priorities directing this teaching in our days?
  
• Which are the new methods, processes and strategies imple*mented for the teaching of architectural design?
  
• What is new, what is different, what is innovative which are the difficulties this new pedagogy has to deal with?
