Values in Studio Teaching
This two hour interactive workshop is based upon an HEFCE
funded programme looking at the organisational structures
adopted by schools of architecture, and how they impact upon
the teaching and learning in the schools.
The workshop allows schools of architecture and landscape
to explore the values that they hold with regard to design
studio teaching. It enables them to evaluate and reflect upon
the extent to which these values are aligned with the learning,
teaching and assessment activities taking place within the
school. The workshop could form a useful exercise for those
preparing a critical self appraisal document in anticipation
of a professional validation visit or institutional review
but will also be of benefit for any department evaluating
its curriculum in an attempt to achieve continuous improvement.
This workshop has already been run in a number of schools
of architecture. Those participating found the experience
a useful one, particularly as it enabled identification of
a school’s individuality, rather than how well they
complied with an externally determined professional syllabus.
Aims
This workshop aims to engage schools of architecture and
landscape in discussion about the values they hold and how
they might be better aligned with their schools teaching,
learning and assessment activities.
Objectives
By the end of the workshop, participants will have:
- Identified a number of key values held individually and
collectively by members of staff in the school.
- Identified those values that are perceived to be successfully
integrated into their teaching, learning and assessment,
and the reasons why this is successful
- Recognised those values that are less well aligned with
the curriculum and identified possible strategies for improvement
Prerequisites:
Participants should be actively involved in design teaching
within their schools of architecture.
Maximum Numbers: 25
Fee Charged: £100
Facilitators:
The workshop will be facilitated by one of the following:
- Oren Lieberman, Strathclyde University, School of Architecture
and Building Science
- Martin Pearce, Portsmouth School of Architecture
- Walter Matsika, Portsmouth School of Architecture
- Andrew Roberts, Welsh School of Architecture, Cardiff
The facilitators for this workshop were all participants
in the HEFCE Funded project. They all teach within their respective
schools of architecture
