Guest lecture / keynote speech |
A relevant fraction of the face-to-face activity uses the expository method, whose responsibility rests fundamentally on the teaching staff, either orally or with the complement of audiovisual media. However, and independently of the foregoing, during these sessions a certain participation rate is sought by the students, enhancing their involvement, encouraging the feedback of the process (and therefore the bidirectional character of the communication), and energizing the learning mechanisms through interaction techniques. |
Problem solving |
Practical tests will be carried out, designed from previously worked contents, and that must be solved in a limited time. The progressive nature of such tests obeys to the criteria of continuous evaluation, so that the conclusions of each phase can serve to redirect the teaching and learning processes conveniently, adapting them to the particularities of the group in order to reach the purported competences.
These tests are organized in the development of an architectural project and will progressively incorporate the different topics that are developed in theory. To this end the student must design a concrete framed building in the first week of the course and progressively draw the type of structure, resizing its elements, calculating a representative frame of it, assembling the indicated sections and completely solving the assembly of frames and slabs that are indicated in each case. From this work, partial deliveries of each of these aspects will be made. The complete work will be delivered in a final portfolio that will develop the whole structure of the building. |
Diagramming |
It is intended that the student develops during the course the capabilities of analysis and synthesis through the preparation of synoptic documents. The aim is to reinforce meaningful learning through the structured synthesis of the main contents worked on. The elaboration is understood progressive, ordering of continued form concepts and expressions, schematizing processes of analysis |
