Advanced Architecture 1 - American Architects/City Design
In this course, students study the styles of different American Architects in relation to City Design.
Students design the "form" of a different type of building each lesson based on the style of the "American Architect of the Lesson."
The buildings that they design will eventually come together as a mini-city. This course requires a lot of model building. (Students will chose their modeling materials and may use a CAD program - if they are already familiar with it.)
Requirements for each lesson:
Paper
Sketching
Project
Presentation/Explanation
The internet or the library will be used for research purposes similar to the "Introduction to Architecture" Course.
Students must fully complete each lesson before moving on the to the next lesson. Students will be coached to use Padlet to share their work and ideas with the class/teacher.
This course provides a large amount of practice with Critical Thinking and Presentation Skills.
Reviews and grades provide students the opportunity to grow and excel according to their abilities.
Students should expect to work on the course for 8 - 12 hours per lesson. Usually 1/2 high school credit is suggested (based on 90 hours of course work).
