Paper ID #21485Fostering Civic Identity in Architectural Technology Students through theEvaluation of Critical Reflection in Service Learning CourseworkBeth Huffman, Indiana University Purdue University, Indianapolis Beth Huffman is a lecturer at Indiana University Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) in the interior design department. She is a licensed architect with specialties in sustainability and construction. Beth’s classroom pedagogy is focused on the practices of design/ build. She often encourages students to build a portion of their projects at full scale, in order to understand construction connections and

emphasizes students understanding the world in a holistic way byintegrating disciplinary knowledge into a more comprehensive view while willing to collaborateand learn across the barriers between disciplines [1]. This course prepares students to addresscontemporary environmental policies demanding pursuit of the most effective solutions. Theprofessional context for students taking the course reflects emerging professional ethics andbusiness models emphasizing sustainable and resilient community development. To meet theseprofessional and environmental challenges, students need to be prepared to lead in the design andmanagement of high-performance buildings and districts.1.1 The need for an Inter-Disciplinary course on Sustainable Technology

includedmodeling and doing orthographic drawings. Moreover, Demirbas¸et al. [4] concluded thatvarious types of learning were effective on the performance scores of students in different stagesof a design problem through the studio process and that there is a shift from the learning thattakes place by experiencing and learning by doing, to learning by reflecting and learning bythinking. Therefore, in producing these two major design projects in the Architectural Designcourse, specifically the students’ own individual designs, the students would have to draw fromtheir learning experiences from their construction and design related courses where applicable.The aforementioned process would necessarily be valid as Oxman [5] notes that ArchitecturalDesign

individual to carry out taskscomfortably in terms of their photo sensory perception of their environment (Centre for Windowand Cladding Technology, 2017). These metrics are dependent on various factors including lightintensity, direction of light source, reflection of surfaces, contrast of surfaces, the nature of thetask being undertaken, and the photo sensory capabilities of the users’ eyes. Among studies focused on daylight performance, Sharaidin (2012) designed anexperiment focused on optimization of the daylight performance through various motionsapplied to responsive facade systems using integrated software. In another study, Wagdy, Fathyand Altomonte (2016) proposed optimum visual comfort metrics such as hourly spatial daylightautonomy

]ducation must be conceived as a continuing reconstruction of experience… the process andgoal of education are one and the same thing” [10] . Kolb states that learning is best supportedwhen students are engaged in a process that draws their beliefs and ideas about a topic so thatthey can be examined, tested, and integrated with new and more refined ideas [11]. Kolbdescribes learning as a four-stage process: concrete experience, reflective observation, abstractconceptualization and active experimentation. He contents that immediate experience is the basisfor observation and reflection, which is assimilated to abstract concepts, where new ideas andactions can be generated [12].The Skope applications leverage affordances of AR and VR technologies to

arguments suggesting schools are not providing sufficienteducation regarding building science and code compliance while Shealy et al. (2015) reflects that manyprograms that attempt teach codes hold little importance in the mind of many faculty. When code istaught, these lecturing methods more often than not take a hands-off static teaching approach with littleappeal, particularly to the more visual learns in these programs (Moon 2010). Building code educationdeficiencies include (Solnosky et al. 2017):  Courses do not provide adequate detail  Material is isolated from other course and/or curriculum content  Code knowledge is not reinforced in assignments  There is limited available time to cover code material in existing
