The TEA evaluation toolkit: assessing Transdisciplinary, Experiential and Adaptive learning and teaching in urban design studios, our last paper on pedagogic approaches to assist teachers in designing novel teaching formats, is now available on Education and Urban Society web page.
TEA studio evaluation indicators and related values for each learning dimension consolidated in an assessment radar chart.
ABSTRACT
New pedagogic approaches combining Transdisciplinary, Experiential, and Adaptive perspectives are emerging to respond to increasingly complex urban conditions. By addressing the gap in current urban design studio education, the study defined a framework to assist teachers in designing novel teaching formats based on TEA learning approaches. The framework proposed provides a reference to set up TEA urban design studios and an assessment toolkit to assess their effectiveness in learning and teaching. The comparative analysis of two studio applications shows interdependence of TEA learning and teaching dimensions and generates transferrable recommendations to support a new urban design studio pedagogy that effectively responds to contemporary societal and environmental challenges.
