STUDENTS AND PROBLEMS OF CREATIVITY IN DESIGN

Architecture News - Nov 12, 2009 - 19:08   7988 views

The classic teaching of design at the University classrooms, is usually based on the search of Leonardos, like Alexander and Chermayeff would define, and the students are confronted to the difficult task of finding the creative IDEA that will give birth to a future project.
The students, fundamentally those that are in the first levels of the career, are spokesmen of their families and their social groups, they are imbued of pre-disciplinar knowledge that is part of their experience. The current pedagogic processes discard those opinions and knowledge, in acts of repression, since they are not considered important in the discovery of an original IDEA.
