The document outlines the vision and objectives of the Open School, which aims to develop a student community platform operated by universities. This would allow students to actively contribute to research, practical activities, and solutions to diverse problems. Case studies show students generating original ideas and willing to participate. Research found the platform can work in practice and students can create high-quality materials. Future research may study student profiles online versus offline or implement the platform in a small class. The Open School project received EU funding for a larger initiative advancing research education across countries. Publications and presentations helped disseminate the Open School vision.
The document discusses pedagogical approaches for teaching architectural building construction. It notes that traditional lecture-based instruction does not align well with the visual and kinesthetic learning preferences of many architecture students. It suggests integrating hands-on activities and case studies to complement lectures. The use of 3D modeling, multimedia, and visual manuals are recommended to help students better understand construction processes, sequences, and techniques. Developing instruction that engages different learning styles can improve student comprehension and learning outcomes.
The aim of the Open School project is to strengthen the openness of universities to its students. In an Open School, students do not take a passive role as service consumers; they are active, and empowered members of their university. Hence, the open school reflects a new mindset in higher education enabled by the usage of latest crowdsourcing technologies. The web-based IDEANET platform is an adequate system to support universities in launching an Open School project. Three case studies conducted at German higher education institutions demonstrate the feasibility of the concept in practice. The case studies show that students are willing to contribute with their ideas to different issues, ranging from new entrepreneurial business models, improvements of study conditions or creation of new teaching, and research methods. Including grading systems and possibilities for students to realize their ideas in practice are promising, and effective reward mechanisms to steer student participation. In some circumstances, however, the use of grades as a reward can give rise to conflicts among students, and hence needs to be carefully designed.

Hugh Cowan, GM of Reinsurance, Research & Education, EQCSmartNet
Dr Hugh Cowan looks back at major natural disasters in New Zealand's history, including the 1953 Tangiwai Rail Disaster, the 1931 Napier Earthquake, and the 1886 Tarawera Eruption. He examines approaches to managing risk from natural hazards, including avoiding exposure, controlling impact, transferring or pooling risk, and accepting risk. Key questions are considered around the likelihood and impact of events, the types of investments that should be made, when costs should be paid, how much risk is tolerable, and how much should be managed before and after events occur.

Designing New Buildings: Dr Jacky Bowring Head of School Landscape Architecture, Lincoln University
1. [Design] learning by design-
simulating workplace collaboration
Studio as a model for
collaboration
Dr Jacky Bowring
Associate Professor and Head of School
School of Landscape Architecture
Lincoln University
2. Design Studio:
• Origins in atelier-based training at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in
Paris, 19th Century – tutors introduce the language of design
and model behaviour, values, design strategies, and thought
processes of a designer
• Students work in a shared space, often with 24 hour access –
immersive, flexible environment, modelling the professional
office setting
• Activity / problem-based learning
• ‘Crits’ – ongoing critique throughout the project, which
often run over many weeks, sometimes up to a semester
long
• Interaction and integration paramount
• Both a space and a method – involves sustained proximity in a
shared space, interaction, collaboration
3. 48 Hour Challenge, July 2011
• 15 teams of five working together for 48 hours to develop
designs for the quake-hit central city
• Professionals, academics, students working together
4. Master Class, July 2013
• Perry Lethlean, RMIT Melbourne / Taylor Cullity Lethlean
• NZILA Professionals and SoLA students
5. Multi-institutional Collaborative Studio
• Counter to the competitive model of tertiary institutions
• Students and staff from architecture schools around New
Zealand
• Based at CPIT and the School of Landscape Architecture –
sustained co-location, mixed teams, high staff to student ratios,
intensive environment
6. Charrette
• Very intensive design studio – often to solve a specific problem
(from French for ‘cart’, into which completed designs were placed)
• Recently – combined charrette run by Neil Challenger (Lincoln
University) including students from around the world
7. Presentation Day
• Each semester studios
conclude with shared
presentations, food,
exhibitions, involving all
students from all years of
the School
• The Studio – as space and
process – is the core of the
culture of the School of
Landscape Architecture
9. Design Lab
• Uses the studio model in terms of spatial
proximity and continued engagement
• Collaborative between postgraduate students,
students and staff, students and professionals
• ‘Lab’ signals the research focus – design
as research is an emerging method
internationally
