Learning Goals

This theoretical-practical UC aims to understand architectural drawing not only as the basis for architectural creation but also as a system of representation, verification and explanation of the architectural idea and object, as well as a means for the intimate expression of the architect's thought.
The development of this premise is substantiated in the following main objectives:
1. Knowledge and mastery of architectural drawing as a means of representing the architectural idea, as well as how different eras and architects have used drawing as a method, resource and expression;
2. Knowledge and mastery of architectural drawing and its techniques, in the understanding of the possibilities of appropriation and creative manipulation of them in favor of rigor and expressiveness;
3. Knowledge and mastery of architectural drawing as an end in itself, as a differential fact, expression and identity password of the architect's thought.

The program contents are as follows:
1. History of Architectural Drawing (part II). The exploration of the role of architectural drawing in the History of Art and Architecture continues; its relationship with the singular moments of Human History and the transversal influences of and with other areas of knowledge, exploring the contributions of modern and contemporary authors;

Assessment

The grade in this curricular unit may result from one of the following assessment systems: continuous assessment or final exam. Attendance in classes is mandatory (75% of classes). Continuous assessment = (0.25xA) + (0.25xC) + (0.25xC) + (0.25xD) Assessment by regular exam = 0.50x[(0.25xA) + (0.25xC) + (0.25xC) + (0.25xD)] + (0.50xE) Assessment by resit exam, special exam and extraordinary exam = 0.40x[(0.25xA) + (0.25xC) + (0.25xC) + (0.25xD)] + (0.60xE) Where: Final Grade - cannot be less than 10 points. A, B, C, D ? practical work relating to all components A, B, C and D indicated in the syllabus, whose arithmetic average cannot be less than 10 points. E ? exam with a minimum grade of 10 points.
