Goal

To form a student's holistic view of open urban spaces, to acquaint with the approaches, techniques and means for solving problems in the organization of the material and spatial environment of human life.

Objective

to master the practical skills of methods for analyzing the architectural environment, the existing object-spatial models; to study the methods of design and synthesis of elements in the architectural environment; be able to model the architectural environment, taking into account the interaction of man, architecture and space.

Learning outcome: knowledge and understanding

understand the typological and compositional foundations of the formation of the urban environment, the types and boundaries of environmental behavior, and structural and scale elements of the external living environment;

Learning outcome: applying knowledge and understanding

to design a subject-spatial environment, taking into account the environmental behavior and typological diversity of objects. Conduct a comprehensive assessment of the architectural environment;

Learning outcome: formation of judgments

to develop a competent integrated solution for the organization of the urban environment, to give a critical assessment of the design solutions of architectural objects in design practice;

Learning outcome: communicative abilities

present information, ideas, problems and solutions to audiences and subject matter experts; argumentatively and convincingly present project proposals;

Learning outcome: learning skills or learning abilities

gain knowledge of architectural and planning solutions to design objects on the basis of the typological approach.

Teaching methods

Lectures, practical exercises, watching videos, independent research of students in the learning process, solving educational problems. Natural examination.

Assessment of the student's knowledge

Teacher oversees various tasks related to ongoing assessment and determines students' current performance twice during each academic period. Ratings 1 and 2 are formulated based on the outcomes of this ongoing assessment. The student's learning achievements are assessed using a 100-point scale, and the final grades P1 and P2 are calculated as the average of their ongoing performance evaluations. The teacher evaluates the student's work throughout the academic period in alignment with the assignment submission schedule for the discipline. The assessment system may incorporate a mix of written and oral, group and individual formats.

Period	Type of task	Total
1 rating	Glossary preparation.	0-100
	Patterns of spatial perception.
	Identification of leading architectural and planning tools
	Determining the boundaries of environmental behavior.
	Allocation of socio-spatial complexes.
2 rating	Environmental quality assessment.	0-100
	Functional features of urban space.
	The content of the urban lifestyle.
Total control	Exam	0-100

The evaluating policy of learning outcomes by work type

Type of task	90-100	70-89	50-69	0-49
Type of task	Excellent	Good	Satisfactory	Unsatisfactory
Practical work	- completion of work on time and in the amount of 90 to 100% in accordance with the task; - all tasks were completed correctly; - aesthetics of work design at a high or good level; - previously acquired skills and knowledge are used creatively.	- completion of work on time and in the amount of 70 to 89% in accordance with the task; - all tasks were completed correctly, but may contain minor errors that can be easily corrected by correction; - aesthetics of work design at a good level; - previously acquired skills and knowledge are used without creative interpretation, standard solutions are applied.	- completion of work not on time and in the amount of 50 to 69% in accordance with the task; - some tasks were completed incorrectly (but not more than 50%), may contain errors that can be corrected; - aesthetics of work design at a satisfactory level; - previously acquired skills and knowledge are used without creative interpretation, standard and standard solutions are applied.	- completion of work on time and in the amount of 90 to 100% in accordance with the task; - all tasks were completed correctly; - aesthetics of work design at a high or good level; - previously acquired skills and knowledge are used creatively.
Creative exam - clauzura	The work was completed in accordance with the assignment. The topic of the assignment is covered deeply and completely. The elements of the clause are arranged compositionally correctly, logically and consistently. The stylistic unity of graphic techniques, images and explanatory text is fully maintained. The aesthetics of the design of the work is at a high level. The degree of completion of tasks is from 90 to 100%.	The work was completed in accordance with the assignment. The topic of the assignment is covered in full. The arrangement of clause elements with a slight violation of scale and compositional integrity. The unity of graphic techniques, images and explanatory text is slightly disrupted. The aesthetics of the work is at a good level. The degree of completion of tasks is from 70 to 89%.	The work was completed in accordance with the assignment. The topic of the assignment is covered to a greater extent. The arrangement of the elements of the clause has violations of scale and compositional integrity, and the depth of elaboration is insufficient. The unity of graphic techniques, images and explanatory text is significantly disrupted. The aesthetics of the work is at a satisfactory level. The degree of completion of tasks is from 50 to 69%.	The work was completed in accordance with the assignment. The topic of the assignment is covered deeply and completely. The elements of the clause are arranged compositionally correctly, logically and consistently. The stylistic unity of graphic techniques, images and explanatory text is fully maintained. The aesthetics of the design of the work is at a high level. The degree of completion of tasks is from 90 to 100%.

Evaluation form

The student's final grade in the course is calculated on a 100 point grading scale, it includes:

40% of the examination result;
60% of current control result.

The final grade is calculated by the formula:

FG = 0,6	MT₁+MT₂	+0,4E
	2

Where Midterm 1, Midterm 2are digital equivalents of the grades of Midterm 1 and 2;

E is a digital equivalent of the exam grade.

Final alphabetical grade and its equivalent in points:

The letter grading system for students' academic achievements, corresponding to the numerical equivalent on a four-point scale:

Alphabetical grade	Numerical value	Points (%)	Traditional grade
A	4.0	95-100	Excellent
A-	3.67	90-94	Excellent
B+	3.33	85-89	Good
B	3.0	80-84
B-	2.67	75-79
C+	2.33	70-74
C	2.0	65-69	Satisfactory
C-	1.67	60-64
D+	1.33	55-59
D	1.0	50-54
FX	0.5	25-49	Unsatisfactory
F	0	0-24	Unsatisfactory
