O reconhecimento das competências e habilidades necessárias ao exercício profissional de arquitetos e engenheiros civis brasileiros é adquirido em decorrência das formações que lhes são oferecidas. No âmbito da construção de edifícios, pressupõe-se que ambos os profissionais recebem formação equivalente na medida em que os respectivos conselhos lhes atribuem iguais direitos e responsabilidades para exercê-la. Com o objetivo de investigar tal pressuposto, esse trabalho se propôs a examinar a formação oferecida nesse campo aos profissionais oriundos de duas das principais escolas do país: da Faculdade de Arquitetura e Urbanismo da USP (FAUUSP) e da Escola Politécnica da USP (EPUSP). Por meio de análise das estruturas curriculares, de depoimentos docentes coletados em entrevistas, materiais didáticos empregados em aulas, registros de aula de estudantes no decorrer do curso e de acompanhamento presencial em disciplinas que versam sobre o assunto, essa pesquisa revelou que as formações oferecidas pelas duas instituições são profundamente distintas. Na FAUUSP, constatou-se que a formação voltada à construção de edifícios corresponde à abordagem apenas introdutória dos assuntos, fornecida por meio de disciplinas desarticuladas entre si e em relação às demais disciplinas constantes da estrutura curricular. Na EPUSP, em oposição, o tema inserese em conjunto intimamente articulado de disciplinas, as quais fornecem ao estudante intensa fundamentação científica para discussão dos assuntos envolvidos. O trabalho, portanto, reforça a ideia, que vem de longa data, sobre a urgência em se rediscutir a formação oferecida ao estudante de arquitetura e urbanismo na FAUUSP, e principalmente nesse trabalho, no que se refere aos conteúdos de incumbência do Grupo de Disciplinas de Construção do Departamento de Tecnologia da Arquitetura da Escola. / The recognition of competences and skills necessary to professional practice of Brazilian architects and civil engineers is acquired as a result of the training offered to them. In the construction of buildings, it is assumed that both professionals receive training equivalent to the extent that their advice they give equal rights and responsibilities to exercise it. In order to investigate this assumption, this study aimed to examine the training offered to professionals in this field from two major schools in the country: the Faculty of Architecture and Urbanism of USP (FAUUSP) and the Polytechnic School of USP (EPUSP). Through analysis of curriculum frameworks, teachers testimonies collected in interviews, didactic materials used in classes, student records during the course and attendance monitoring in disciplines that deal with the subject, this research revealed that the training offered by the two institutions are profoundly different. At FAUUSP, it was found that training focused on building construction corresponds to only introductory approach to the issue, provided through disjointed disciplines with each other and in relation to other listed subjects of the curriculum. EPUSP, in contrast, the theme fits in closely articulated set of disciplines, which provide the student intense scientific basis for discussion of the issues involved. The work, therefore, reinforces the idea that goes back many years, on the urgent need to revisit the training provided to architecture and urbanism student at FAUUSP, and especially in this work, in relation to the Group\'s mandate to content Courses Construction, Department of School Architecture Technology.

This study attempts to examine the architecture in Turkey during the Early Republican period as part of the social, economic and political context of the modernization process of the newly founded state, focusing on the case of the ismet PaSa Girls&amp / #8217 / Institute in Ankara. Firstly, the education of woman in general and the Girls&amp / #8217 / Institutes in particular are scrutinized in order to analyze the changes in the social role of women in the context of modernization in the Early Republic. Secondly, the relationship between women and the built environment is examined with reference to the changes women experienced in this context. The architectural context of the period is analyzed to examine the buildings of the Girls&amp / #8217 / Institutes as contemporary examples of the creation of a modern built environment in Turkey. Lastly, the building of the ismet PaSa Girls&amp / #8217 / Institute is examined in detail, by also making comparisons with other contemporary school buildings in Ankara. The building, which was constructed as a modernist school building by the foreign architect Ernst Egli in the center of Ankara, is evaluated as the representation of modern women and modern architecture for the new nation-state. So, the aim of this study is to assess the ismet PaSa Girls&amp / #8217 / Institute in Ankara as the example of contemporary educational institutions as well as of contemporary architecture in Turkey, corresponding with the attempt of the new nation-state towards modernization.

The landscape of UK Higher Education has witnessed significant change in recent years, characterised by rapidly increasing numbers, widening participation, and a diminished per capita resource base. Developmental and enhancement agenda have placed greater emphasis on skills for lifelong learning, and the independent learner has thus become a prominent theme. In architecture education these factors are imposing pressures on the traditional studio-based teaching model, one that forms a universal cornerstone of architecture schools. Coincidentally, the same period has seen this model, endorsed by Schon in the 1980s, increasingly challenged. It is argued that the confluence of these factors, presents an opportunity to develop studio-based pedagogy around the notion of the independent learner, renewing studio's relevance and currency. The aim of this thesis was developed from a literature review that was divided into four sections. The first summarised developments within UK higher education, including research into the First Year Experience, and placed architecture education within this context. The second examined the origins of contemporary studio-based teaching, whilst the third discussed the theoretical roots of its pedagogy. The final chapter critiqued teaching and learning practices through comparison with the theoretical intent, revealing a number of contradictory and counter-productive aspects. From this, the position that the development of the truly independent learner in the discipline of architecture requires the formulation of new inclusive pedagogic strategies that explicitly accommodate the individual in the studio-based learning process, and address identified shortcomings in existing studio-based teaching practices, was developed. The methodology adopted an ethnographic approach that gathered data through a longitudinal study of student perceptions, together with interviews with selected academics. Analysis of the findings, whilst replicating many phenomena raised by the literature, also revealed in detail a range of perceptions of learning, and wider student life, giving insight into key challenges. In considering these against the agendum of creating the independent learner, the importance of the peer group as a vehicle for studio-based learning and pastoral support, emerged strongly. A number of recommendations were thus made aimed at reconstructing the role of the tutor in the development of future strategies, as well as harnessing the unrealised potential of the peer group as an agent in embedding independent learning in design studio. The originality of this thesis resides in the fact that it constitutes a holistic study of teaching and learning practices in first year design studio. This is viewed against the background of rapid change in UK Higher Education. Pivotal to the study was the undertaking of a longitudinal survey of student perceptions, presenting a vitally different perspective from, say, that of Schon. From a holistic standpoint, the study creates the theoretical and evidential basis for the future development of key pedagogic strategies relating to design studio. This lays the foundation for the development of learning practices that foster learner independence within the context of design studio.

International travel has significant implications on the study of architecture. This study analyzed ways in which undergraduate and graduate students benefited from the experience of international travel and study abroad. Taken from the perspective of 15 individuals who were currently or had been architecture students at the University of Miami and Florida International University or who were alumni of the University of Florida and Syracuse University, the research explored how international travel and study abroad enhanced their awareness and understanding of architecture, and how it complemented their architecture curricula. This study also addressed a more personal aspect of international travel in order to learn how the experience and exposure to foreign cultures had positively influenced the personal and professional development of the participants. Participants’ individual and two-person semi-structured interviews about study abroad experiences were electronically recorded and transcribed for analysis. A second interview was conducted with five of the participants to obtain feedback concerning the accuracy of the transcripts and the interpretation of the data. Sketch journals and design projects were also analyzed from five participants and used as data for the purposes of better understanding what these individuals learned and experienced as part of their study abroad. Findings indicated that study abroad experiences helped to broaden student understanding about architecture and urban development. These experiences also opened the possibilities of creative and professional expression. For many, this was the most important aspect of their education as architects because it heightened their interest in architecture. These individuals talked about how they had the opportunity to experience contemporary and ancient buildings that they had learned about in their history and design classes on their home campuses. In terms of personal and professional development, many of the participants remarked that they became more independent and self-reliant because of their study abroad experiences. They also displayed a sense of global awareness and were interested in the cultures of their host nations. The study abroad experiences also had a lasting influence on their professional development.

The assertion that knowledge of architecture is not an objective canon, but rather the knowledge of its practice, requires an inquiry into its personal dimension, which cannot be articulated completely. The investigations on the inarticulate (tacit) portion of knowledge in Polanyi&#039 / s works enable an inquiry into the act of comprehension with its cognitive value. This inquiry regards architectural knowledge as personal and acquired through experiences of comprehending meanings in personal problem solving processes like designing. The reorganization of knowledge through articulation is explained to be possible by comprehending the meaning transmitetd through the articulate. Continuity is viewed through the idea that, the comprehended meaning irrevocably enlarges personal knowledge and contributes to the comprehended meaning in the upcoming experiences of the individual. This approach to continuity is the account for regarding architectural education as a self conducted act that lasts as long as the individual continues comprehending. The first year architecture education is regarded as a time limited external support for preparing the students for this continuous self-education. The discussion of the thesis is structured around the depicted polar tension of the first year design studio / between the conformist tendency of the students and the instructors&#039 / attitude to enable students&#039 / creative experience. The first year of institutional education on architecture is significant for the opportunities it provides for the students&#039 / transition form confomism to creativity. The aim is to illustrate how it functions for transition to reintroduce the students&#039 / personal dimension into their articulations in the first year design studio practice. This attitude is displayed by exemplifying the setting designs and practices for students&#039 / reorganization of knowledge through the creative act of articulation. The thesis adopts in its discussions that the design exercise is a task handled not only for design learning but also for learning how to learn from the design act, which enables the development of creative skills.

Thesis (DTech (Architectural Technology))--Cape Peninsula University of Technology, 2016. / This research explores design-build projects in architectural education. The design-build studio is an alternative to the conventional theory-oriented studio. In design-build projects students both design and build real buildings. Internationally, design-build projects have increased rapidly in architectural programmes over the past decade. Literature suggests that design-build projects are relevant for architectural education, but that there is a definite need for more theoretical and critical exploration. Design-build projects in the context of this study are defined as socially responsive, inhabitable, full-scale investigations. The value of this pedagogical construct for educators, students, architectural practice and society in general was an underpinning theme guiding this exploration. Design-build projects are located on the boundary between theory and practice. This research provides a view into my journey across this boundary, immersing myself in both the theoretical and practical. Principles of the designbuild process and design research mapped the research path. The research process commenced with the initiation of and active participation in a number of design-build constructions. Through critical reflection on the construction experiences and the literature, specific pedagogical and practice implications were explored. Cultural historical activity theory provided me with a sense of theoretical direction in this journey. Collaboration as a pedagogical tool and the possibility of exposing students to alternative practice possibilities were foregrounded as being uniquely situated within the design-build project. The value of this research is the contribution it makes to the current international call for a clearer understanding of the pedagogical and practice merit of design-build projects.

本研究採現象學研究取向，探究幼兒在開放式學習環境建構單位積木圍出空間的本質意義。探究其內涵以理解幼兒建構單位積木圍出空間的身體經驗與所建築的建築空間之關係。 　　研究者故事的描述進行現象學還原，描述在幼兒園積木角靜觀一位中班五歲幼兒運用單位積木建構「麥當勞」的歷程。通過此描述歷程，逐漸獲得幼兒藉由身體運動建構單位積木圍出空間作為「身體邊界的延展」之本質性意義。同時也進一步理解支持身體邊界進行延展的要素－時間性、身體感、空間性與想像力間的關係。 　　最後，本研究從現象學研究取向，日常活動的教育意義提出未來的展望。 / For this study the researcher used the phenomenological research orientation to explore the essential meaning of children in the open learning environment developing enclosed spaces surrounded by constructing with unit blocks. Indeed, to make a thorough inquiry into the relationship between the body experience and the built architectural space of children constructing with unit blocks. For the purpose of proceeding the phenomenological reduction, the researcher adopted description of the story in-position viewing a 5-year-old girl building her "McDonald's" restaurant construction with unit blocks in the block center in a preschool classroom. Following through the progress of this description, gradually get the essential meaning of children via physical movement forming enclosed spaces with unit blocks constructing so as to "extend the boundary of the body". Measwhile, further understand the relationship of the elements that supporting body boundry extending movement- timeliness, sense of the body, spatiality and imagination. Finally, this research is going to take a glance into the future from both of the phenomenological research orientation and the meaning of molar activity in early childhood education.

O projeto de João Batista Vilanova Artigas (1915-1985) para o edifício da Faculdade de Arquitetura e Urbanismo da Universidade de São Paulo, concebido entre 1960 e 1961 e construído na Cidade Universitária entre 1966 e 1969, atravessou um período de ruptura na ordem política do país que marcou sua produção material e sua valoração histórica. Marco inquestionável da arquitetura moderna brasileira e, em particular, da escola de Vilanova Artigas, a explicação histórica dessa obra se mostra indissociável da luta pela reforma do ensino de arquitetura, das políticas para obras públicas do Estado de São Paulo e do debate sobre o subdesenvolvimento no segundo pós-guerra. Esta tese, organizada em quatro capítulos, busca, primeiramente, interpretar a trajetória de seu autor até o momento da inauguração do edifício, argumentando que a pesquisa arquitetônica de Artigas baseada no concreto armado aparente, iniciada em meados da década de 1950, manteve seu vínculo com a nova monumentalidade, porém, deslocando o foco representativo da identidade nacional para a própria construção. Em seguida, este trabalho examina o processo de distinção de Vilanova Artigas no campo institucional da FAU e sua relação com o campo profissional. Para isso, recorre à história da faculdade, criada em 1948, a partir do curso de arquitetura da Escola Politécnica da USP, na qual se observa o crescimento do protagonismo de Vilanova Artigas, consagrado com seu projeto para o novo edifício da escola e sua liderança na reforma do ensino. Seu papel busca ser explicado à luz da atuação de seus pares, professores, arquitetos e engenheiros, bem como dos obstáculos políticos e acadêmicos enfrentados por ele. O encontro das hipóteses arquitetônicas radicais de Artigas com o fecundo território para experimentações da Cidade Universitária de São Paulo é discutido em seguida, tomando como referência a história desse campus e o caráter excepcional das Cidades Universitárias de modo geral. São então destacados o Plano de Ação do Governo do Estado (PAGE, 1959-1963), responsável por uma mudança de paradigmas nas obras públicas do Estado de São Paulo que resultou na promoção da arquitetura moderna feita em escritórios particulares, e o Fundo para Construção da Cidade Universitária Armando Salles de Oliveira (FCCUASO), um órgão público de planejamento e administração direta das obras na Cidade Universitária, criado pelo PAGE, que teve papel relevante na construção do edifício da FAU. O último capítulo deste trabalho analisa aspectos artísticos, técnico-construtivos e políticos da produção do edifício da FAUUSP. A trajetória de Vilanova Artigas, a história da FAU e os planos para a Cidade Universitária são retomados em uma narrativa detalhada que vai dos primeiros croquis do projeto à inauguração do edifício, tragicamente simultânea ao afastamento de Artigas da universidade, em 1969. / The architecture project of João Batista Vilanova Artigas (1915-1985) for the building of the Faculty of Architecture and Urbanism of the University of São Paulo, designed between 1960 and 1961 and built between 1966 and 1969, passed through a period of disruption in the political order of the country that interfered on its production and historical meaning. Being an unquestionable landmark of Brazilian modern architecture and, in particular, of the Artigas school, the historical explanation of this work is inseparable from the struggle to reform the architecture education, the policies for public works in the State of São Paulo and from the debate about architecture in the context of the post-war underdeveloped world. This four chapters thesis seeks, first, to interpret the trajectory of Artigas until the inauguration of the building, arguing that his architectural research based on exposed concrete that began in the mid-1950s, maintained its link with the new monumentality, however, shifting the representative focus of national identity for the construction itself. Then, this study examines the distinction process of the architect in the institutional field of FAU and its relationship with the professional field. For this, we refer to the history of FAU, created in 1948 from the architecture course of the Polytechnic School of USP. We seek to explain the role that Vilanova Artigas obtained both with his design for the new building of the school and with his leadership in the educational reform, in the light of the performance of their peers, professors, architects and engineers, as well as the academic and political obstacles faced by the architect. The confluence of Artigas radical architectural hypothesis and the fertile territory for experiments of the campus of São Paulo is discussed in the third chapter, from the perspective of the history of this campus and the exceptional character of the Cidades Universitárias in general. We then highlight the Action Plan of the State Government PAGE (1959-1963), which was responsible for a paradigm shift in public constructions of the State of São Paulo that resulted in the promotion of modern architecture made by private offices. PAGE created the Fund for Construction of the campus (FCCUASO), a public agency of direct administration of constructions that planned and executed the constructions on the campus, playing a decisive role in the construction of the building of FAU. The last chapter of the present thesis analyses some or the artistic, technical-constructive and political aspects of the production of the studied work. The trajectory of Vilanova Artigas, the history of the Faculty of Architecture and Urbanism and the plans for the campus are resumed in a detailed narrative from the early drawings until the opening of the building and the dismissal of the Artigas from the university, in 1969.
