Rhythm in Architecture - English for Architecture

Rhythm in Architecture - English for Architecture


This blog has been nominated for the Edublog Award 2005

These brain maps have been created by participants in the course ID3-125 "English for Architecture" at Universidad Simon Bolivar in Caracas, Venezuela. The brain maps are just one of the activities designed for the reading "Rhythm" that they have in their reading guides. This is the whole lesson plan accompanying the reading. Some of the recordings have been added to this photoblog, as well as links to some of the students' blogs.

Enjoy,

Dafne

These are true pieces of art! I'm speechless ( and you know me)
What tools did you use?

Thanks, Chrissan. Yes, architecture students do amazing things when asked to use their creativity. I will let them explain what tools they used to create their brain maps ;-)

Hi, Daf and students!
I want to congratulate all of you on such fabulous work! :-)
I've just been going through all the mind maps, recordings and blogs and I'm very impressed.
You're all very lucky to have such a creative and committed teacher and, Dafne, you're also very lucky to have students who grab your ideas and develop them in such imaginative ways.
The topic is extremely interesting and I must say that, of all the maps, I found Irelis' illustrates the idea "with rhythm". Why do I say this? That's what the different arrows immediately felt like in my mind.
Kudos to all of you and always keep up the great work! It may be time consuming, but it's worthwhile. And remember, they are fabulous documents that you leave for others to see and refer to.
Hugs all,
Teresa (in Lisbon, Portugal)

Wow, Daf! This is a masterpiece...Do you think these creative architects would be willing to explain how they came up with this work of art? I'd be more than willing to read !

Congrats to students and to their teacher!

Congratulations, Daf, to you and your students. I like their mind maps a lot: each is telling the story in a unique way. I also admire the project idea and the resources you've created for you students. This is LSP at its best. Cheers.
