Learning unit contents
(B2-specific content) Course #0241-2 is part of the teaching and research programme on architectural projects. The architecture workshop offers an intermediary step, teaching students the architect's approach through an architectural project. This approach builds upon analytical studies of real-world situations, which are then theorised in order to be integrated into a contextualised practice. The most prominent topics in this course include: * the "fundamentals" of architecture: space, form, function, structure, "writing" * analysing and organising a programme * composition: shaping a "simple" architectural project while taking into account its full complexity * contextualisation: how projects resonate with their sites * developing a "discourse": analysis, argumentation, meaning, statement * developing an architectural culture: references, analysis and comprehension
Learning outcomes of the learning unit
Course learning outcomes 1 - Link with the competency dictionary All content taught as a part of the "architectural projects" DER enable the student to develop certain skills featured in the faculty's competency dictionary, by guiding them more specifically in the development of the following skills: * study an architectural question * develop a spatial response * implement a spatial response 2 - Course learning outcomes described from an operational point of view The course develops the students' capacity to implement a project from design to execution and in response to a given environment and taking into account considerations related to function, plastics and construction. * learn about various usage values * take into account information related to programming, ergonomics and context (physical, cultural, social) * take into account how spaces function * understand the implications of structure and materiality * organise shapes and spaces * refine the codes representing space at the various phases of research, in its expressive and conventional aspects, in 2D and in 3D * introduction to CAD
Prerequisite knowledge and skills
PREREQUISITES: Prerequisites: ARCH0141-1 Architectural project 1 * ARCH3265-1 and ARCH3266-1 Space writing 1 * ARCH3267-1 and ARCH3268-1 Graphical construction of space Arch Construction 1 COREQUISITES: Corequisites: ARCH0231-2 Space writing 2 * ARCH0233-1 Graphical construction of space 2
Planned learning activities and teaching methods
In addition to theoretical assignments (experiment, summarise, transmit) and thematic assignments (be creative, stimulate debate), students will visit sites, go on trips and attend presentations (be curious, discover, understand, take notes). They will also carry out specific activities related to opportunities such as setting up exhibitions, publishing works and taking part in workshops. The various assignments given are used for evaluations.
Mode of delivery (face-to-face ; distance-learning)
All classes are in-person. Students will be presented with theoretical information, critical assessments and various presentations. The workshop, organised with smaller groups of students, is given by several teachers who help students get acquainted with the architectural discipline and with the cultural contexts on which it builds.

Recommended or required readings, and course notes
Assignment instructions, presentations and reading notes are available on the MyULiege platform

Assessment methods and criteria
atioalAll assignments are evaluated on the basis of the learning outcomes expected at the course's conclusion. These are specified for each assignment.
Students make a graphical, written and oral presentation of their work, along with a model, during:
* intermediate steps: formative evaluation (positive or negative) on the student's work;
* panels, with or without outside guests: letter marks according to the ULiege's general exam regulations;
* correction sessions for thematic assignments: comments from the teaching staff.
Mark weighting
- mark weighting vary as the importance of the exercises and may be adapted in the evolution of works. It is progresive, like the steps of the projets.
- first project: 40 % of the total
- second project: 60 % of the total
