Session: ED228-1
Title: A Creative Teaching Approach to Sustainable Design in Architectural Curricula
Instructors: Brian Skripac with John Herridge
Course Description: Are you interested in incorporating sustainable design concepts into your curriculum and don't know where to begin? A case study from a recent sustainable design workshop will provide a unique, knowledge-sharing opportunity to educate both graduate and undergraduate students in designing for a sustainable future. This seminar will outline a hands-on, interactive, and visually informed process that technology can effectively support for learning sustainable design, while evaluating the impact of passive building design strategies through a Building Information Modeling (BIM) workflow. The collaborative benefits of group-based design charrettes, combined with individual experiences, create a compelling learning environment. This approach enables students to explore multiple design options while evaluating both the positive and negative impacts of these design strategies on the building's performance.
