Educational Methods for Design Courses: Functional DormitoriesAbstractThe purpose of this paper is to describe a student-led international engineering project that isboth exciting and educational. The challenge with this project is to reach the proper balance ofstudent-led creativity and learning, collection of data, adequate expert review, and transfer ofknowledge to other students. This paper details an international student project that was thendocumented as a case study. After providing a synopsis of the example case study, a suggestedstructure for developing such a case study is provided with references to the example. This canhelp guide a faculty member design such a project in the future. A suggested classroom

architecturaldesign studio focused on the design of efficient, elegant, expressive long-span structures.Examples of student design solutions for various projects are shown and explained. Anassessment of the benefits of teaching structures in a studio is presented. The studio projectsdemonstrate that structure is an important determinant of architectural form. Form should followforce, and not merely function.IntroductionTechnology is design. Technical concepts, especially in architecture curricula, should be taughtas design. However, structures courses in most architecture programs have long relied oncalculation based problem sets as their primary pedagogy. This approach is unrealistic and doesa disservice to students. It does not accurately represent the

the CurriculumIn order to further this effort we needed to incorporate LEED and other ‘green building’ conceptsinto architectural and construction curriculum. While many programs have introducedenvironmental sustainability lecture courses into the curriculum, we have decided to makesustainability central to the mission of our upper level design classes. It is through problemsolving design projects that students best learn to research, understand, analyze, and apply theirknowledge of sustainable concepts. More than ever, leading design and construction firms arelooking for recent graduates that can help them create the environmentally sensitive buildings thepublic demands.This new focus on building better buildings has meant great potential

Similarly, Esparragoza 7 proposed that “training to help the students todevelop and enhance their visualization skills can be done by means of problems and exercises inthe orthographic projection and axonometric drawings topics.” He cited the role of two multi
