Course Objectives

This course aims to identify and develop individual strengths in material investigation and architectural model-making, and to develop an understanding of the significant role of 3D manual processes within a design context.

Course Content

This course introduces various methods that will help and inspire students to advance their creative ideas and design projects. Students will gain skills in a practical way to focus on sketch models for the early stages of a design process. They will continue with improving their representations. For the further development, detailed models of the creative ideas will be used. The practical part of the course addresses a number of challenges. In small steps students will be guided through technical and creative difficulties of creating representative 3D models.

Academic Integrity and Artificial Intelligence

Violations of scholastic honesty include, but are not limited to cheating, plagiarizing, fabricating information or citations, facilitating acts of dishonesty by others, having unauthorized possession of examinations, submitting work of another person or work previously used without informing the instructor, or tampering with the academic work of other students. Any for of scholastic dishonesty is a serious academic violation and will result in a disciplinary action.Use of Artificial Intelligence (AI):Students are permitted to use artificial intelligence (AI) tools (such as ChatGPT, Grammarly, etc.) for grammar correction and academic writing improvement throughout their work. However, AI-generated original content (e.g., analysis, paragraph writing, conceptual description, etc.) must not exceed 20% of the submitted material.In any case where AI tools are used, students are required to include a clear declaration within the assignment/report/submission. This declaration must include the name of the AI tool/model used, the specific purpose, and a brief explanation of how it contributed to the work.Example declaration:"I used ChatGPT-4 for proofreading and restructuring the introductory paragraph."Failure to declare the use of AI tools when applied will be treated as a violation of academic integrity and plagiarism policies and may result in disciplinary action.
