Instructors from five architecture schools awarded the ACSA's 2023 Timber Education Prize

The Softwood Lumber Board, in conjunction with the Association of Collegiate Schools of Architecture (ACSA), has announced five winners as part of the 2023 Timber Education Prize. The Prize recognizes innovations in the instruction of architecture courses in North American universities that will ultimately lead to a greener future thanks to their abilities to engender a "stimulating and evidence-based environment for learning about timber."The ASCA shares: "These innovative courses will be taught at architecture schools across North America in the coming years. These courses seek to recognize effective and innovative curricula that create a stimulating and evidence-based environment for learning about timber. The use of wood as a building material can achieve multiple design, construction, and performance objectives. Therefore, these courses equip students with the knowledge and design skills to achieve green building goals in a range of project type."The jury selected five courses to receive a cash prize along with further support for implementation at their host institutions within the next two academic years. Honorable Mentions were selected as well. The winners will be presented at the 2023 ACSA/AIA Intersections Research Conference in October in Amherst, Massachusetts.Scroll down to hear more about the five winning courses.UDBS AR Home Lab: STREET LEGALInstructors: John Folan & Candice Adams from the University of ArkansasRead the full post on Bustler
