Architecture Theory explores the key concepts that drive critical, reflective, and innovative practices within architecture from roughly 1968 to today. The course provides an introductory exploration into both western and non-western concepts that posit thinking and writing as an integral part of the discipline. Students read from texts within the architectural discipline or non-architectural texts that hold a powerful influence over it. This course focuses on the development of methods of critical inquiry, comprehension, and writing skill and the translation of theory into various forms of architectural representation.Online course sections will be delivered with both asynchronous and synchronous components as outlined in the course syllabus. Required online synchronous meeting times are listed as the meeting pattern for this course section. This course has two required components. Students need to register for both when signing up for this course. There is a Lecture section for the asynchronous portions of the course and a Discussion section for the required, synchronous components of the course. The meeting pattern that appears on the Discussion section represents the actual times during which students will need to attend the synchronous portions of this course.
