Sustainable Development Goals
Learning Goals
The specific objectives are:
a) Knowledge of the historical evolution of architectural design as a means of disciplinary knowledge and critical analysis of design and architectural works;
b) Training students? skills in specific architectural design techniques and systems;
c) Introduction to the fundamentals of proportion, scale and composition;
d) Development of observation and drawing skills of real and imaginary space;
e) Knowledge of architectural drawing as a means of representation and communication of architectural ideas;
f) Knowledge of the vast lexicon of architectural representation.

Teaching Methods
I work during school hours on research exercises.
Work outside school hours to explore the topics covered, recording graphics in the daily notebook.
Presentation and discussion of results.
Assessment
Exercises will be carried out in and two main practical assignments, one corresponding to an intermediate delivery (30%) and the other corresponding to the final assignment (45%).
The mandatory practical component consists of a graphic record notebook that allows the assessment of the student's progress and their involvement with the curricular unit (20%).
The classification also considers the quality of the work, valuing the student's creativity, participation, evolution and interest (5%).
The final classification, considering the student's frequency (P) and general achievement, will be the weighted average of the two classifications (Av1+Av2) predicted for the semester, and the classification of the graphic diary (DG).
Normal season (EN)
Final Grade = (0.05xP) + (0.75xAv) + (0.20xDG), min. 10 v.
Resource season (ER)
Final Grade = (0.4xEN) + (0.60xER), min. 10 v.
Resource season (ER) = (0.5xEN) + (0.50xER). min. 10 v.
