Description
This course is an Introduction to Architecture. In this course we study the fundamental aspects that make up Architecture. Architecture is the science and art of the design and construction of buildings. In this course we study those fundamental aspects of Architecture with examples from a wide variety of architectural styles and historical periods. The course also serves as a doorway to the further study of the many styles and periods of human building design and construction activity and practice.
Important: this course is not a quick "let me design something right away" course. It is a course designed on the basis of the very important and fundamental subjects that a student would take during his or her first year in an accredited university level architectural program. Among those subjects included are very important and fundamental notions in physics such as the understanding of static and dynamic forces.
I teach lecture courses and studios as I wish they would have been taught to me. Much of the graphic material in my lectures is taken or generated firsthand directly by me on site. I teach to learn. I teach subjects as I wish they were taught to me. The Mission Statement. Education is a tool for the improvement of successive generations. I hear and I forget. I see and I remember. I do and I understand. Confucius
This course is designed under the premise that humans should be taught in a way that is modeled after the educational patterns of evolution.
The design, development and application of educational systems based on the educational principles of evolution generates a philosophy and methodology of education in synchrony with the evolutionary education system that is firmly and deeply rooted in each of us.
Education for evolution is an educational system designed to help propel humans forward in the natural course of evolution. The purpose of education for evolution is to enhance and strengthen the natural evolutionary process of humans through the mechanism of education. The means to achieve this objective is the design of a curricula based on the same educational techniques and strategies used by natural evolution, enhanced and guided by the application of conscious educational decisions.
