The Fontys Academy of Architecture & Urbanism is happy to invite you to the first studio didactic training “Teaching the Teachers”. This training is organised in cooperation with the Education Academy of the EAAE (European Association for Architectural Education). The training is the first pilot project of Educating the Educators Platform addressing architectural pedagogies. The training will take place on 1-2 March 2019 in Tilburg, The Netherlands.

The training, perceiving architectural design studio as a pedagogy that is thriving on a culture of dialogue, colloquial ideas and the development of future visions, will offer didactic tools that are specifically designed to accommodate this pedagogy. The training program, developed by Ir. Elise van
Dooren (TU Delft) contains lectures by exercises and roll plays that will train your teaching of design skills.

This training is offered to experienced architecture educators and educators in architecture that are not formally trained teachers. The participants will receive at the end of the training a certificate.

Register today! The training will be held with a minimum amount of 12 participants.

There are only 18 places available.
