Learning outcomes |
The purpose of HA3 is to constitute itself as a reflection on the theoretical and practical production of the architectural world of the Contemporary Era, understanding, in this context, is genesis and development, as well as the sociocultural conditions that frame it. From the contents of this CU period in particular - from Neoclassicism to the 20th century - students should also work a deeper maturity in reflecting on the history of production and critical practice of this specific moment of history, with inevitable repercussions on practice and subsequent architectural discourse. Learning to think about architecture from a complex point of view and to which a wide range of knowledge contributes is an essential objective of all architecture training. This UC is affiliated with this way of thinking/acting architectural knowledge.

Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria |
The classes are organized in three main axes: exposition/discussion of contents, follow-up, and public presentation of students' work.
Assessment: a) Content assessment test (individual), 40%; c) Theoretical and critical group work. Theme included in the syllabus of the CU (the teacher compulsorily accompanies the article, the structure, the specific bibliography and the development), 50% and d) Participation, 10%.
The final presentation of the group work is a mandatory element of evaluation. Papers that do not comply with the academic source reference rules - resulting in direct and indirect or conceptual plagiarism - and the correct placement of the bibliography (APA bibliographic format) will be considered null. In these cases, students will not be able to attend the exam.
