READINGS
The purpose of the readings is to aide in our
discussion of your design work and to help you begin to develop your own
vocabulary and style for discussing your work.
Seminar sessions will be held once every two
weeks (roughly) for a two hour portion of Studio time (as indicated on the
class calendar). You will be told in a timely fashion which readings are due
for each seminar session. Each student
is responsible for the submission of two questions for discussion provoked by
each of the readings assigned. These questions are to be handed in at the
beginning of the seminar session and will form the basis for conversation.
These questions should be typed. They will be reviewed and graded even if they
are not used during the discussion.
Students will be designated as session leaders in
advance of each of the seminars. Subsequent to the seminar, questions will be
collected, graded, and factored into evaluations. Readings for the first
session are on the course blog at:
