Architectural (De) Schooling in the Age of Quarantine
Event Date: Jun 11, 2020 - Jun 13, 2020; Event City: The future of architectural education to be discussed by experts from the leading schools during the Moscow Architecture School MARCH online public programme Educators of the leading architecture schools will participate in a public programme initiated by the Moscow Architecture School MARCH. In June and July, nearly 20 online discussions will be held, featuring experts from different countries. Architectural (De) Schooling in the Age of Quarantine is a series of discussions, posing a difficult question: do we need architecture schools today, when all education can take place online. The transformation of the educational process into distant formats was caused by extreme circumstances. Almost overnight, a historical shift occurred from old to new forms of interaction between institutions and students. When the pandemic over, a return to the old order would be impossible. What does it mean for schools, and for architecture education in general? The Moscow Architecture School MARCH invited educators from different countries, representing diverse approaches, generations to discuss these issues. The series of online talks, which will be held in Zoom and broadcasted on YouTube, will include teachers from MARCH, ETH Zurich, MIT, Columbia GSAPP, AA, TU Delft and many others. The first meetings will feature MARCH Dean Eugene Asse and Dean of the ARCHIP in Prague Regina Loukotova (June, 11), and Vice-dean of the D-Arch at ETH Zurich Tom Emerson and Sam Jacob, Professor of Architecture at UIC, Chicago, council member at the AA, London (June, 13). Updates of the schedule can be monitored on the website launched for the program: https://blog.march.ru/en/deschooling, as well as on the school's profiles in social networks. There the links to webinars in Zoom and broadcasts on YouTube will be posted. MARCH Architecture School is a unique educational centre specialising in an international educational programme in the field of architecture and urbanism. The School was developed in partnership with the Sir John Cass Faculty of Arts, Architecture and Design of London Metropolitan University (LMU), which is among the best architecture schools in the UK. Our students receive a British MA or BA (Hons) award in Architecture and Urbanism, while studying in Moscow. Read the full post on Bustler
