Dear Sven,

 

Years ago I asked the Space Syntax community to suggest readings for the beginning student. They are compiled in

http://www.arch.ttu.edu/people/faculty/haq_s/SYNTAX-BEGINNINGS/SPACE-SYNTAX-BEGINNING-READINGS.htm

Perhaps you will find it useful.

 

Sincerely,

Saif

Dear All,

 

I am currently preparing a seminar for architecture students on computational methods for analysing architectural and urban environments. The aim is to provide the students with a set of tools with which they are able to "decode" space in order to adress an individual research question.

 

So, i'am interested in the following:

What are your experiences in teaching space syntax methods to architecture students?

Do you have some tipps e.g. how to establish the link between abstract measures and real world experience?

Is there some online teaching material available (i think of small examples based on which it is easy to discuss certain phenomena)?

What are common research questions which students can address in the format of a seminar (due to limited time and "scientific-non-experience" of the students)?

 

Best regards & Thanks in advance,

Sven
