| summary |
This paper discusses the impact of a continuously developing CAAD learning strategy, describing in
detail a few of these principles, and considering their dynamic impact through deeper more lasting
learning, feeding a substantial intensification in the application of Architectural Designing with
Computers, changing design methods with interesting analytical and creative results.Aspects of the
CAAD teaching discussed include extended collaboration between CAAD and design tutors in defining
learning outcomes and tutoring the students’ application of CAAD to design projects, inclusion of CAAD
within traditional interim reviews and feedback for design projects and bringing emphasis on conceptual
principles, structuring the model and simple programming into earlier stages of the teaching programme
and a simple excursion into programming. Studio project examples indicate the interplay between
teaching, learning and achievement. Some evidence is explored in greater detail. from the "Interstitial
Layers" project utilising the appropriateness of CAAD to store and switch the visibility of spatial data in
endless permutations and extensive combinations for mapping, analysing and strategically projecting
patterns of city centre activities, fabric and space. Students’ demonstrate a dynamic command of CAAD:
as a vehicle for conceptual design, a device to analytically review, criticise and modify the design, as a
means to explain design ideas to tutors and to develop and detail final building designs. Reciprocal
valuing of quality CAAD achievement between architecture students and staff is seen to be contributing
to involvement and motivation, reinforcing striving for equality of achievement. Reference to a further
strand of the new methodology considers the impact of tutoring based in researcher findings from video
case study precedents of architects practising creative design through use of computers, on a more
open, effective development of the architecture students’ own designing processes, culminating in
interesting design work. |
