“…Architectural education has undergone continuous development, accompanied by a transformation in its educational objectives [25]. Initially, the focus was primarily on imparting fundamental design skills [26] and construction knowledge [27], emphasizing students' aesthetic sensibilities [28,29], creative abilities [8,30], and practical skills [31,32].…”

This study addresses the current lack of research on the effectiveness assessment of Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology in architectural education. Our aim is to evaluate the impact of AI-assisted architectural teaching on student learning. To achieve this, we developed an AI-embedded teaching model. A total of 24 students from different countries participated in this 9-week course, completing a comprehensive analysis of architectural programming and design using AI technologies. This study conducted questionnaire surveys with students at both midterm and final stages of the course, followed by structured interviews after the course completion, to explore the effectiveness and application status of the teaching model. The results indicate that the AI-embedded teaching model positively and effectively influenced student learning. The “innovative capability” and “work efficiency” of AI technologies were identified as key factors affecting the effectiveness of the teaching model. Furthermore, the study revealed a close integration of AI technologies with architectural programming but identified challenges in the uncontrollable expression of architectural design outcomes. Student utilization of AI technologies appeared fragmented, lacking a systematic approach. Lastly, the study provides targeted optimization suggestions based on the current application status of AI technologies among students. This research offers theoretical and practical support for the further integration of AI technologies in architectural education.

“…Architecture is a design process that involves programming, design, and construction phases in general. It brings together functional components to create a built environment that is functionally efficient, economically feasible, and aesthetically pleasing [5]. According to the UNESCO/UIA Charter for Architecture education, there are points including;…”

The Covid-19 pandemic has brought major changes in education delivery in general. Architectural education, which aims to produce competent practitioners, needs to adapt to this condition. Architecture is not just about designing a building but also about the interaction between humans and their spatial and environmental settings. It is appropriate to develop architectural concepts following post-pandemic conditions. Understanding the concept of post-pandemic architecture can be done with digital tools so that learning is expected to be more effective. This work studies references that show the importance of post-pandemic architectural concepts and the use of digital tools in today's architectural education. The results of this work are expected to help academics develop post-pandemic architectural curricula.

“…With regard to aesthetics, each resident has a specific level of ability that enables him or her to distinguish beauty (Danaci, 2012), and the perception of being surrounded by beauty enhances self-esteem. Uzunoglu (2012) argues that unpleasing forms, shapes, and styles of architecture create disordered built environments that have negative psychological effects on inhabitants.…”

The Dilemma of Saudi Arabian Homes in Riyadh

2020

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The courtyard form of the traditional Arab house responded to both climate and the culture of its inhabitants. Islamic values, as well as socioeconomic factors, played crucial roles in the design. However, the mid-20th century marked the beginning of Saudi Arabia’s first rapid economic growth as a result of the discovery of oil; which dramatically increased the wealth and prosperity of the population, and resulted in new lifestyles. This period witnessed the introduction of the grid layout street pattern and the detached villa house. This type became the prevalent style in Saudi Arabia, the central province, and Riyadh in particular. While the traditional courtyard house more than satisfied cultural needs, increasingly it was viewed inappropriate for affluent 21st-century lifestyles. Yet this research confirmed that the villa style is creating fundamental problems for Saudi families. The theoretical framework is set in sustainability theory, and investigates the principles of home through human needs, place, and house. The methodology uses a survey strategy with questionnaires, interviews, and building analysis to determine which aspects of home are satisfied by each type. The dilemma is that Saudi families will not return to the courtyard type because it does not meet important requirements of status; whereas the villa type does not meet significant criteria such as privacy. The context is increasing climatic temperatures, which are making both types increasingly uncomfortable. This study highlights the need for a specific contemporary home style that would satisfy 21st-century aspirations, respect Islamic culture, and respond to changing climate.
