Investigación sobre El Modelo

Résumé

Investigation on Model is a teaching experience that revisits and updates the teamwork format within the Design Studio courses. To this end, we implement a series of action items: the model, the client, the mock-up and the negotiation. These learning strategies allow to simulate the real conditions our students would find in the real world and in an architectural office nowadays, all of this working towards a common goal. The experience, developed by the Teaching Innovation Group from ETSAM, called “Agglutinative Design Devices”, deals with a reality characterized by multi-skilled professional work, collaboration and complexity, which is far away from traditional individual models. With this intention, the group understands the University as an entity able to affect its context and its discipline, the classroom as a close environment where knowledge between peers can be amplified, the students as a research group akin to a professional office and the ensemble student-Professor as a learning active agent.
