Suggested discussion polls:
- How to build a learning sequence for a beginner: from sketching and manual graphics to BIM and calculations. What to give in the first years and what to give in the senior years.
- Criteria for evaluating student projects: what is more important — idea, functionality, detail or compliance with standards? Examples of good and controversial criteria.
- The role of hand sketching in the digital age: whether it is necessary to preserve this skill, how to integrate it into the learning process, and how to evaluate it.
- Analysis of typical mistakes of students: compositional, planning, constructive; how to "catch" them in advance at the assignment stage.
- BIM in training: from what stage to introduce Revit/Archicad, how to combine with manual graphics, how to evaluate the BIM part of the project.
- Visualization and presentation: a balance between photorealism and clear graphics; which tools (Enscape, Lumion, V-Ray, Twinmotion) are appropriate and at what stage.
- Generative tools and AI in architectural education: how to use it without loss of authorship, how to integrate it into the learning process, evaluation criteria.
- Teaching students effective design in terms of engineering networks and energy-efficient technologies.
""Design" "IHS" in 30 minutes," "make a functional scheme according to the TOR", "select materials for the budget" — with subsequent analysis.
- Interviews with practicing architects: short answers to 5-7 questions about what they taught at the university and what they had to learn in practice.
