Objectives
GENERAL OBJECTIVE
KNOWLEDGE OF METHODS AND TECHNIQUES FOR UNDERSTANDING AND ANALYZING A BUILDING ORGANISM FROM A CONSTRUCTIVE, FUNCTIONAL AND MORPHOLOGICAL POINT OF VIEW. ACQUISITION OF THE ABILITY TO EXPRESS IN GRAPHIC TERMS THE ELEMENTS CHARACTERIZING THE BUILDING ORGANISM, BOTH WITH REFERENCE TO THE SIZE OF THE EXISTING BUILDINGS AND WITH REFERENCE TO THE BUILDINGS
OF NEW CONSTRUCTION.
KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING
UNDERSTAND THE TERMINOLOGY USED IN THE CONTEXT OF THE MODELS OF THE CONSTRUCTION OF A BUILDING ORGANISM, THE FUNDAMENTAL CONCEPTS OF THE ARCHITECTURAL GRAPHIC LANGUAGE AND THE METHODOLOGIES OF THE
TECHNOLOGICAL PROJECT.
ABILITY TO APPLY KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING
KNOW HOW TO DEVELOP GRAPHIC MODELS AND REPORTS FOR THE ANALYSIS, READING AND STUDY OF BUILDING TECHNOLOGY THROUGH THE COGNITIVE AND TRANSFORMATIVE PROCESSES OF BUILDING. ABILITY TO RE-PROPOSE AND RE-ELABORATE I
METHODS AND KNOWLEDGE ACQUIRED IN THE TECHNOLOGICAL DESIGN OF A BUILDING.
AUTONOMY OF JUDGEMENT
KNOWING HOW TO IDENTIFY THE MOST APPROPRIATE METHODS TO UNDERSTAND AND RENDER IN GRAPHIC FORM THE CONSTRUCTION ELEMENTS AT THE VARIOUS SCALES OF REPRESENTATION, OPTIMIZING THE PROCESS IN RELATION TO THE ASSIGNED THEME.
COMMUNICATION SKILLS
KNOWING HOW TO WORK IN A GROUP AND ORALLY AND GRAPHICALLY EXPLAIN A TOPIC RELATED TO THE TOPICS COVERED DURING TEACHING.
LEARNING ABILITY
KNOWING HOW TO APPLY THE KNOWLEDGE ACQUIRED AND KNOWING HOW TO INDEPENDENTLY LEARN NEW DEVELOPMENTS IN THE CONSTRUCTION FIELD.

Teaching Methods
THEORETICAL LESSONS AND EXERCISES IN THE CLASSROOM.
THE ARGUMENTS ARE INTRODUCED IN THE THEORETICAL LESSONS INTRODUCING THE CONSOQUENT AND TRANSFORMING PROCESSES OF BUILDING. IN THE EXERCISES THE STUDENTS ARE ASSIGNED TO ELABORATE A PROJECT BY USING THE TECHNIQUES ILLUSTRATED IN THE THEORETICAL LESSONS. THE PERFORMANCE OF EXERCISES IS GUIDED BY THE TEACHER AND TAKES TO DEVELOP AND STRENGTHEN THE ABILITY OF THE STUDENT IN KNOWLEDGE BUILDING A BUILDING PROJECT IN A ASSIGNED CONTEXT. ATTENDANCE TO THE COURSE IS COMPULSORY AS PROVIDED BY THE APPLICABLE REGULATIONS.
MINIMUM ATTENDANCE IS 75% OF LESSONS.
Verification of learning
ASSESSMENT OF THE ACHIEVEMENT OF THE SET OBJECTIVES TAKES PLACE BY MEANS OF A FINAL ORAL EXAMINATION, WHICH ALSO INVOLVES CHECKING THE RESULTS OBTAINED IN CARRYING OUT THE EXERCISES (PROJECT AND GRAPHIC DESIGN, REPORTS, ETC.). THE ASSESSMENT IS SINGLE AND IS EXPRESSED IN THIRTIETHS. THE EXAMINATION TIME IS 25 MINUTES.
FOR THE PURPOSES OF HONOURS, ACCOUNT WILL BE TAKEN
- THE QUALITY OF THE EXPOSITION, IN TERMS OF THE USE OF APPROPRIATE SCIENTIFIC LANGUAGE
- THE ABILITY TO CROSS-REFERENCE THE VARIOUS TOPICS OF THE COURSE AND, WHERE POSSIBLE, WITH OTHER
DISCIPLINES
- THE AUTONOMY OF JUDGEMENT DEMONSTRATED.
