PhD Interface Learning - New goals for museum and upper secondary school coll...Sally Thorhauge
This document provides background information on the intrface concept, which is a collaboration between upper secondary schools and local museums in Denmark to develop museum-based coursework for students. The PhD project aims to analyze student learning experiences, the effects of teacher-museum staff collaboration, and how collaboration influences student learning. The research seeks to provide findings to help partnerships strengthen their combined learning environment for students, while also serving cultural-political and educational-political purposes of relevant institutions.
The document discusses the process of museum-making and the collaboration between architects and museum curators. It examines how priorities are defined for an exhibition scenario and how joint expertise can contribute to exhibition success. As an example, it analyzes the 1993 exhibition at the Department of Islamic Arts at the Louvre Museum in Paris, including the institutional process, making the exhibition scenario, and translating concepts into architectural space. It also references plans for a 2009 exhibition and expansion. The document considers how architectural design can mediate between artifacts and visitors and how museum design must respond to artifacts and an conceptual program while serving visitors.
This dissertation explores partnerships between museums/galleries and prisons that display prisoner art, and the level of participation incarcerated artists have in related exhibitions.
The document defines partnership as a collaborative project/program between organizations to achieve a goal, with responsibilities not necessarily shared equally. It examines two case studies: Cell Block 7 Museum and The Big Issues Project.
The findings are that partnerships are formed by museums for funding and mission-related reasons, but can experience power conflicts due to their complicated nature. Artist participation in exhibitions is limited by incarceration, and is often partial or non-existent.

Architecture . an introduction to the history and theory of the art of buildi...JoaniPaulusCovaleski1
This document provides an introduction to architecture and its history. It discusses the origins of architecture, defining it as the art of building and arranging buildings. Architecture began through responding to needs for shelter and developed a magical or mystical element as well. Early architecture incorporated elements of sacredness, ritual, and the worship of stones and columns representing gods. While materials, techniques, and styles have changed greatly over time, the fundamental origins of architecture in utility and human symbolic expression have endured.
How Did Architecture Influence Greek ArchitectureDawn Robertson
Postmodernism in architecture emerged in response to Modernism, with Robert Venturi criticizing Modernism's "puritanical moral language" and preference for simplicity and rationality. Venturi proposed alternatives like "both-and" instead of "either-or" and "decorated sheds" over "duck." Examples of Postmodern architecture include the works of Australian architects Glenn Murcutt, who incorporated natural elements into his designs, and Harry Seidler, known for blending international styles with a focus on human scale.
This document summarizes an academic article about how theories of everyday life have influenced the fields of architecture and architectural history. It discusses how architects have long sought to establish their profession by differentiating architectural works from ordinary or vernacular buildings. Theories of everyday life, beginning with Henri Lefebvre's work, have helped architectural thinkers examine everyday spaces and critique trends toward commercialization and standardization in the built environment. However, theories of the everyday have also reinforced dichotomous thinking about architecture and landscapes. The document argues for an alternative perspective grounded in the materiality and bodily experiences of everyday spaces.
Architecture is more than just buildings - it is life itself taking physical form. It is a creative spirit that reflects the nature of humanity and how we live. Great architecture designs ideal environments for people through the arrangement of space in a way that contains, stimulates, and exalts the individuals within. It conveys a view of what the proper environment for humans should be. Architecture is not just decorating the outside of a box, applying styles as fashion, or doing literal representation. It uses space to create total environments and an idealized world for people to inhabit.
This document outlines the course plan for History of Art and Architecture. It proposes changing the course title to better reflect the literature's focus on both art and architectural history. The objectives are to promote awareness of socio-cultural, political, economic, and technological contexts of past and present architecture. Students will visit historical buildings in Karachi and Thatta and participate in a drama workshop. The curriculum will cover Renaissance/Baroque architecture and the Industrial Revolution's impact, as well as 19th/20th century developments and modern pioneers like Wright and Le Corbusier. Recommended textbooks are also listed.
1) Art and architecture are closely related fields that have evolved alongside human development. Art educates and entertains while also developing human aesthetic sensibilities.
2) Applied arts began as utilitarian objects but progressed to include decorative elements and structural architecture. Architecture aims for both function and beauty, especially after the Renaissance.
3) Architecture creates livable environments that suit human material and cultural needs while being in harmony with nature. Major works of architecture often become cultural symbols that define civilizations. Art and architecture continue to influence each other through innovative ideas.
Contemporary Architecture Style, Design, Architecture And...Jennifer York
Architecture plays an important role in society in several ways:
1. Architecture is a major part of the construction industry, which contributes significantly to a country's GDP.
2. Buildings designed by architects shape our daily lives and experiences. From schools to houses to public buildings, architecture surrounds us everywhere.
3. Well-designed architecture can positively impact people's health, happiness, productivity and sense of community. Features like natural light, ventilation and open spaces are important considerations for architects.
4. As populations grow and urbanization increases, architecture will continue to be crucial for efficiently designing livable, sustainable cities and infrastructure to support more people.
The Origins Of Postmodernism And ArchitectureLaura Arrigo
The document discusses the origins and key concepts of postmodern architecture. It begins by explaining Robert Venturi's critique of modern architecture in his 1966 book "Complexity and Contradiction in Modern Architecture" and his concept of "puritanical moral language." It then provides examples of two Australian architects, Glenn Murcutt and the firm McBride Charles Ryan, who incorporated postmodern concepts. The document concludes by explaining how postmodern architecture rejected the dogmatism of modernism through historical citations and ornamentation.
Spanish expeditions during the 15th-18th centuries brought architectural influences from Spain to Mexico. The architecture exhibited wealth, politics, religion, and beauty through ornamentation. Styles included Gothic, Renaissance, Baroque, and Churrigueresque. Churches often had domes and rectangular plans. Precious materials were used in many buildings constructed during this period in Mexico.
An architect typically starts their day discussing project requirements with clients, then prepares and presents drawings and design plans for review while ensuring compliance with codes and regulations, and makes changes throughout the planning process.

1. The document discusses the difference between construction and architecture according to Le Corbusier. Construction provides shelter, while architecture touches the heart through relationships between shapes and forms.
2. It notes that modernist and postmodern architecture often failed to fulfill basic practical needs for shelter. Sergison Bates designed highly resolved and practical housing schemes in the 1990s-2000s that met utilitarian demands.
3. While their housing work was not widely built, it showed architects regaining mastery of practical construction and addressing users' needs, moving the profession beyond being just "high priests" of monumental buildings.

YEOT Spring 2015: Webinar 6: Ancient Engineering ArchitectureAaron Maurer
The document provides information on ancient engineering and architecture from prehistoric times through the Roman era. It discusses prehistoric megaliths and structures, ancient Egyptian pyramids and tombs designed by Imhotep, and the emergence of classical architecture in Greece with the three orders of Doric, Ionic, and Corinthian columns still influencing design today. It then focuses on the Parthenon temple in Athens constructed between 447-432 BC using the post-and-lintel method with optical illusions, and describes Roman advances like straight roads built with the groma tool, arched structures like the Colosseum and aqueducts transporting water into Rome.
The document summarizes Frank Lloyd Wright's 1908 essay "In the Cause of Architecture". Wright discusses how nature inspired his architectural principles and guided the design of structures like Fallingwater. He outlined six design guidelines centered around harmonizing buildings with nature. Wright believed this approach allowed for individual artistic expression, as seen in the Prairie-style Robie House. However, the industrial revolution limited such expression by prioritizing profit. Wright argued for unity in an architect's works and the need for each to develop a unique design philosophy and technique. The essay emphasizes Wright's view of architecture's expression of design and ability to inspire as a fine art.
How Did Roman Architecture Impact The RenaissanceAlana Cartwright
The passage discusses how Palladio influenced architecture through his designs of symmetrical buildings based on classical Roman styles. His works were studied closely by many architects seeking to emulate his perfection of proportion and harmony. Palladio established architectural rules and principles through his designs that lacked explanation but were seen as beautifully ideal. His influence has endured from the Renaissance to today, establishing him as one of the most influential architects in history.
Unit 5 Experiencing architecture by A.Sivaraman M.ArchSiva Raman
This document discusses how architecture can be experienced through various aspects like mass and cavities, contrasting solids and voids, and as color planes. It provides examples from buildings in Rome, Venice, and France to illustrate these concepts. The key points made are that architecture involves experiencing the spaces created by subtracting mass as well as the solids, and that some buildings are perceived more as two-dimensional color planes rather than masses. Details like ornamentation, materials, and light can transform the experience and perception of a building.
Classical architecture has strongly influenced Western architectural traditions. Many modern monuments derive from ancient Greek and Roman sources in an attempt to link modern ideals to antiquity. This is evident in Washington D.C., where neoclassical styles predominate, such as the Lincoln Memorial which was modeled after the Parthenon. By basing the Lincoln Memorial on the Parthenon, architects sought to venerate Lincoln with classical ideals and link America to the first democratic society of ancient Greece.
The document discusses the evolution of postmodern architectural history and theory. It provides 11 key points about postmodernism according to Charles Jencks, including that it embraces pluralism, ambiguity, and uses irony to juxtapose opposites. Jencks also notes that postmodernism incorporates the modern, and represents a culture with a sense of departure but no clear direction. The document explores themes of postmodern architecture like historicism, eclecticism, and reconciling old and new generations.
Architecture (Latin architectura, from the Greek ἀρχιτέκτων architekton "architect", from ἀρχι- "chief" and "creator") is both the process and the product of planning, designing, and constructing buildings or other structures. Architectural works, in the material form of buildings

This document discusses using a wiki as a collaborative tool for writing. It proposes creating a new health communication course that focuses on communicating sustainability at work. Students will assess workplace behaviors and policies that impact wellness and sustainability, and devise communication strategies. Students will collaborate in teams to construct a wiki on a sustainability topic, including investigating the topic, analyzing information, designing wiki pages, and presenting their wiki. Wikis allow collaborative writing and constant evolution. This assignment outlines components for the sustainability topic wikis and a grading rubric.
The document summarizes SDSU's evaluation and selection of a new student response system to replace its existing eInstruction clickers. It discusses the benefits and challenges of clickers, presents results from a trial of the top two systems (i>clicker and Poll Everywhere), and demonstrates i>clicker. Based on faculty, student, and staff ratings across 15 criteria, i>clicker was preferred and was seen as simpler and more consistent than the alternatives. SDSU plans to transition mainly to the lower-cost i>clicker system starting next year.
Some see the iPad as one more way for people to find endless distractions and entertainments, a nail in the coffin for those who seek to "amuse themselves to death." Others believe the iPad is the best exemplar to date of the possibilities for extending human abilities to learn, connect, and create via powerful portable computing devices. Either way, the iPad and its ilk deserve attention from educators considering the future of teaching and learning. This session will open a conversation about the possibilities, in the hopes of helping participants to move beyond their preconceptions and biases.

It also provides links to library resources including research guides, databases, the mobile catalog, directories, and contacts for library departments and librarians.
This document discusses the importance of instructor immediacy, or communication behaviors that enhance closeness and interaction, in virtual environments like Second Life. It outlines different nonverbal communication channels like clothing, gestures, eye gaze, and posture that can be used through an instructor's avatar to increase immediacy. The document provides suggestions for implementing immediacy, such as choosing an appropriate virtual world, personalizing an avatar, and emphasizing voice to engage students.
This document discusses formative assessment tools that can be used to gather feedback from students to continuously improve course design and the learning experience. It introduces key questions about bringing an inquiry mindset to course design and deciding what type of feedback to seek. Several tools are presented, including the Student Assessment of their Learning Gains (SALG) survey and Community of Inquiry survey to collect data on outcomes, inputs, processes, and the social, cognitive and teaching presences in a course. Data from various assessment strategies used in online and hybrid psychology courses is shown as an example.
The document provides an overview of the OCEAN320 summer course, including:
1) The course focuses on three oceanographic issues - ocean warming/acidification, overfishing/aquaculture, and offshore petroleum exploration.
2) Students will learn about the scientific principles underlying each issue and examine them through economic, social, and political perspectives.
3) Assessment includes module quizzes, feedback surveys, and two exams with both multiple choice and essay components.
4) Communication with the instructor is primarily through email and the Blackboard platform, including live lecture sessions.

The popular OCEAN320 The Oceans course was rebooted from the ground up to (1) promote SDSU's new GE capacities and goals and (2) capitalize upon the strengths of online learning. Every quanta of new course content was reversed-engineered from learning outcomes designed to help students appreciate the scientific context and societal complexity of major oceanographic issues, such as ocean warming and acidification, overfishing and aquaculture, and petroleum exploitation and risk. The course is structured into scaffolding learning modules, each comprised of an integrated sequence of live Wimba sessions and an array of student-centered activities based on readings, videos, and web-based simulations. This effort has been an extremely rewarding (and exhausting) educational endeavor, and has forced me to re-evaluate my role as an educator in a increasingly stressed world where information is no longer scarce but often overwhelming.
This session will report on the major findings of three large-scale studies examining the impact of instructor immediacy behaviors in recorded online videoconferencing sessions, the Wimba online classroom, and Second Life. The presenters will describe the communicative behaviors that enhance instructor immediacy and closeness with the students and offer practical recommendations for application in different online learning environments.
The document discusses how a teacher uses discussion boards on Blackboard to increase student engagement and understanding of course material. It provides examples of different types of discussion board prompts used, including getting-to-know-you posts, summaries of assigned readings, focused discussions of readings, and group discussions. The teacher shares that discussion boards allow students to be assessed on their comprehension of upcoming topics and motivate them to complete assigned readings. Plans to add mini-assessments to discussion boards in the future are also mentioned.

With class sizes increasing, it is becoming increasingly difficult to support research and writing activities. The extra workload associated with grading, checking assignments, and providing support outside of the classroom can become overwhelming. Through my experience in the Course Design Institute, I have learned about several tools that will be useful for increasing research and writing activities while maintaining a manageable workload. I have incorporated the use of online tools to support writing activities in a large undergraduate course, including Blackboard, Google Docs, and Wimba Classroom. In this session I will describe what worked and what didn’t work, and I will provide a brief demonstration of the techniques that have been most useful.
This study examined the effects of instructor immediacy and communication media on student perceptions, cognitive learning, perceived learning, and satisfaction in a virtual classroom. Participants experienced teaching sessions that manipulated immediacy (high vs. low) and media (video vs. photo). Results showed that students in the high-immediacy groups rated the instructor higher on immediacy measures and performed better on cognitive tests than those in low-immediacy groups. The group with high immediacy and video scored highest overall. While all groups showed cognitive gains, those exposed to higher immediacy learned more. Future research could address limitations and further explore the role of immediacy and media in virtual learning.

9. We cannot ask ‘ What ?’ in the presence of any architectural feature without also asking ‘ Why ?’… If we ask the reason why, we are brought at once to the study of the constructional facts.
10. Not infrequently men have hit upon new methods of construction in endeavoring to meet utilitarian necessities, and these new methods have stimulated new artistic expressions.
11. Mechanical invention and aesthetic feel were never separated in the minds of the Gothic builders… The Gothic movement, though wonderful as a structural organism, is even more wonderful as a work of art.
12. The ribs and bars and shafts are all at bowstring tension. A mason will tap a pillar to make its stress audible; we may think of a cathedral as so ‘high strung’ that if struck it would give a musical note.
13. When I say artist I mean the man who is building things -- creating molding the earth -- whether it be the plains of the west -- or the iron ore of Penn. It's all a big game of construction -- some with a brush -- some with a shovel -- some choose a pen.
14. Noble life demands a noble architecture for noble uses of noble men. Lack of culture means what it has always meant: ignoble civilization and therefore imminent downfall.
