Turning Courses into Spirals

Ciaran Malik: BA Architecture Technical Studies Coordinator, Central Saint Martins Spatial Practice
Anna Mestre: Associate Lecturer Technical Studies, Central Saint Martins Spatial Practice

This session gives you an opportunity to think about short projects that you use in courses as a spiral. How it could provide an opportunity to recap topics to reengage students who haven’t embraced a topic the first time and how it can build on the previous loops to develop a strong final project. We invite you to bring a course with linear projects and try and spiral them yourself.

This is based on the technical studies course in BA Architecture where we use four spirals to cover the topics of structures, materials, construction, sustainability and environment.
