Abstract:
The traditional teaching mode “based-on-experience” has been challenging by digitalization and information technology revolution, the multiplication of knowledge medium has brought the change of cognitive style as well. Facing the reality, the teaching of architecture major must take use of the characters and advantages of different mediums, make corresponding adoptions of the teaching methods. The architectural design teaching should follow the cognitive law of “perception- reflection-behave”, guide the students get the sensory experience, establish the emotional connection, use the multiple mediums, get through the information barrier, form the embodied cognition, to realize the continuity and max efficiency of the process of perception, cognition and expression. Base on this, the author takes the architectural bachelor’s fourth grade urban design workshop as example, specifies the roles and task of teachers and students during the “teaching-learning” procedure from teaching target and strategy, refines the teaching plan and timetable to promote and integrate the “experience – comprehension – practice”, in order to lead students to choose the most suitable viewpoint and tools in different stages, combining the body experience and book knowledge with information media and internet data, promoting the design process into a circular working process with “cognition – practice – recognition – re-practice”, to accomplish the workshop more openly and multiply, further, to establish personal knowledge framework and to find suitable design methods, and finally improve their comprehensive design ability.
