Learning methods and activities

The basic way of learning is experimenting, research and project development. The methods are drawing, writing, photography, CAD, model building. There will be lectures, seminars, workshop training in addition to workshop exercises. Students will work individually and in groups. The supervision will follow this pattern. There will be plenary presentations at various levels of the development process. As the projects are not realistic in the sense of a demand of a final product there will be openness to what to produce and present.
