| Summary: | Having sufficient technical knowledge and the ability to use it creatively, architects can better interact with structural, electrical and mechanical engineers in the professional work environment in addition to designing optimal architectural projects. To achieve such conditions, some scheme are proposed in regard to the review of curriculums and teaching methods of technical courses in architecture; so that students can acquire the theoretical knowledge of technical courses in learning process and represent it through their design abilities. This paper mainly aims to provide students with an efficient content and methodology for teaching students about mechanical utilities and services. This study is an applied research based on survey, which is carried out through library research and questionnaire. Questions of the questionnaire are according to the educational psychology educational theories. It is associated with attitudes and teaching-learning approaches of humanism and constructivism, active learning, an overview of existing conditions of architectural education in the three of the world’s top universities and a proposed teaching tool based on the augmented reality technology. Finally, a survey of suggested approaches regarding the content, teaching methods and proposed supplementary teaching tool is conducted among faculty members who have professional experience of interaction among architects. This indicates the emphasis on dedicating a part of the course to practical works. Linking the course with architectural design workshops in different semesters and the acceptance of the proposed supplementary teaching tool due to giving the learner an active role, increasing the accuracy and focus of the learner, enhancing the spatial visualization of components and paths and knowing the ultimate effects on architectural form. |
