taking architectural learning online: the use of digital technologies to facilitate the formative studio critique

“Education lies at a peculiar crossroad in
society. On one hand it has the responsibility
of anticipating real-life skills by preparing us
for an increasingly complex world – but
education methodologies can only be
formalized after practices have been
defined. This dichotomy is particularly
aggravated when it comes to technology,
where fast-paced innovation and
perpetual change is the only constant.”

3 taxonomies of learning

creating Synthesize parts into something new and different a new form or product;
reorganizing elements into a new pattern or structure through generating,
planning, or producing.
evaluating Making judgments based on criteria and standards through checking and
critiquing. Critiques, recommendations, and reports.
analyzing Breaking material or concepts into parts, determining how the parts relate
or interrelate to one another e.g. spreadsheets, charts, or diagrams, or
graphic representations.
understanding Constructing meaning from different types of functions, written or graphic
interpreting, exemplifying, classifying, summarizing, inferring, comparing,
and explaining.
applying Using a procedure through executing, or implementing. Refers to situations

presentations, interviews or simulations.

6 technology-mediated learning conversation
Do you feel it [facebook] enhances the interactions with
your lecturer?

STUDENTS: Yes.
STUDENT G: Definitely.
STUDENT C2: Yeah quick feedback that’s what I like,
that’s where it comes in.
STUDENT A2: It’s just like an open discussion, they are
open to...
STUDENT C2: It’s like they [the lecturers] stand with us.
STUDENT C2: And I think this is actually like making us
gain confidence in our work, because actually you know
where you are heading to and what is required from
you.


6 technology-mediated learning conversation
And has it [facebook] also helped in your
interaction with fellow students?

STUDENT D2: Yes it has. No, yes definitely. It
definitely has.
STUDENT G1: “I think a large part of it (is) ...
interactivity... you can upload a project or like
post an idea and then people in our class could in
this like electronic environment give feedback on
it. “
STUDENT A2: For me it feels like we are still in a
class and we are interacting, ja.
STUDENT B2: It’s just a digital way. Digital
classroom.
