Methodologies Description
Introductory activities With these activities, it is aimed guiding the students in the content, methodologies, learning outcomes of this subject (and AAF) and how he will be evaluated.
Supervised projects This methodology is based on competences and contents of Architectural Technical Drawing; students will be required to complete several assignments during both class time practice sessions and non-class time hours allocated for these activities.
One of the Supervised Projects will consist of an exam.
This section of the course focuses on learning ‘how things are done’ and the promotion of supervised independent learning (under the supervision of the teacher).
Class contact hours will be used for the proposal and discussion of project topics and related theoretical considerations. Class time will also include a series of group and/or individual project monitoring sessions, and time for carrying out particular taks on the project in process. The test assignment (exam) will be done during part of the class hours.
Workshop The workshop section of the module includes both class time practice sessions and non-class time spent on workshop tasks assigned and supervised by the lecturer.
This methodology is based on competences and contents of Freehand Drawing.
Workshop tasks are focused on learning ‘how things are done’ and encouraging supervised independent learning.
Students will be required to produce a set amount of graphical work (defined in advance by the lecturer) during the hours allocated for workshop activities.
Workshop activities will be based on the following categories and assessed individually, with each task accounting for a specific portion of the overall mark:
1) Class work (ordinary class hours)
2) Weekly practical tasks (student´s personal work hours)
3) Final test drawings (final exam)
Guest lecture / keynote speech Oral presentations, using audiovisual aids and other resources, intended to convey knowledge and encourage learning.
Theoretical contents will be divided according to the module’s two main subject areas and taught using a non-linear approach, based on the make-up of the group and the learning objectives proposed by the lecturers.
In the Supervised project methodology, the theoretical contents will be taught under the teaching strategy known as the flipped classroom.
On the other hand, the theoretical contents in the Workshop methodology will be developed in theoretical-practical sessions.
