ESUA TEST MODULE 5:
ARCHITECTURE AND BUILDING TECHNIQUES IN WOOD.
NORWAY, 16-23 AUGUST 2008
Based on the ESUA curriculum
and training methodology hypothesis, this test module will focus
on the problems and possibilities in real-life situations by
studying ongoing development and building projects in Norway,
using wood as a sustainable building material.
The partners will
visit and make interviews at selected projects ranging from
single buildings to urban areas, and explore both new and
traditional wood technologies.
Based on these
experiences, students and partners will participate in a
workshop to test participation in a hands-on building process as
a teaching method in future educational programs based on the
ESUA curricuum.
The short course will include both workshop training and classroom teaching, and also be open for participants from the building industry, practicing architects, urban designers and students from the partners' network. The short course will be held in collaboration with two of the Affiliated Organisations, the NGO Stiftelsen Byens Fornyelse and the local construction company Rauland Aktivitets Service.
All participants in the test course will be invited to take part in the evaluation and critique of the event, and make proposals for a revised teaching methodology and curriculum.
