Arch 384/684: Competitions Elective |
|
|
 RULES
OF ENGAGEMENT!! (effective 27.12.2009) |
|
STUDENTS MUST COMPLETE THE COMPETITION AND ESSAY AND SUBMIT TO ME PRIOR TO BEING REGISTERED FOR THE COURSE. YOU MUST OBTAIN PRE-APPROVAL FOR THE COMPETITON. 1. The Competition must be registered for and entered (on time) and proof submitted to indicate this. This course is not a "test run" but the "real thing". The competitions listed below have all been selected as they allow student entries. If you fail to enter, it will not "count". DO NOT PUT YOUR NAME ON THE FRONT OF THE BOARD. Competitions are judged anonymously. 2. Failure to submit the ILLUSTRATED and PROPERLY REFERENCED essay portion of the course will result in failure of the course (maximum grade of 46%). The essay portion is necessary for this course to qualify as a research elective and it allows me (and you) a better understanding of the development of the project/building type. Make sure that you read the course outline and see the grade breakdown! undergrad. grad. If aspects are missing (images, footnotes, bibliography) you will receive zero on that portion of the assignment. No exceptions. 3. The elective must be completed in a timely fashion. Please select a competition/deadline that is manageable within either your work term or school term. Lack of time will not be acceptable as an excuse for failure to complete. You need to figure out how to manage your time and create space to complete the course. This is why it is an "independent" course. If you cannot manage your time, do not take this course. You will never be "gifted" with 2 to 3 weeks with nothing else to do, so you cannot count on this. 4. The course is reserved for students of a 3A or higher studio level. 2B students are NOT permitted to take this course. 5. Students may undertake the competition entry in pairs (MAX), but each student must submit their own, unique, essay. Essays MUST include proper university level referencing formats: endnotes/footnotes, image credits AND a separate bibliography. 6. You may NOT use work or designs created for another course (ie. design studio) to satisfy this course. Projects must have been specifically created to satisfy the competition requirements. 7. Students are only permitted to take this course once during either their Undergrad or Grad degrees. 8. Registration will only be permitted during the Winter and Spring terms. NO EXCEPTIONS. Students wishing to use this course as an elective during their fall term will have to pay a course fee and register on either the winter or spring term. Also, PLEASE DO NOT PUT YOUR ID NUMBERS ON YOUR RESEARCH PAPERS. I am concerned about your personal security when I post them on the website. WORK SUBMITTED FOR THIS COURSE CANNOT HAVE BEEN SUBMITTED FOR CREDIT FOR ANOTHER COURSE. IE. YOU CANNOT "TWEAK" YOUR STUDIO PROJECTS TO RECEIVE CREDIT. THIS ELECTIVE IS TO USE WORK SPECIFICIALLY DONE FOR THIS COURSE AND ITS COMPETITION ALONE.

| PROBLEM STATEMENT: | |
The competitions elective was designed to give students the opportunity to support the creation of entries for the many, interesting competition opportunities provided by organizations such as the American Collegiate Schools of Architecture, the Steel Structures Education Foundation, The Precast Concrete Institute, etc. The students must comply with the rules, regulations, requirements and submission deadlines for the competition. They must also create a research paper that highlights the various precedents and initiatives that were part of the required typological or technological research portion of the design parti. This is an important aspect of the course and is designed to assist you to develop research and writing skills that support design related inquiries. The course outline and research essay requirements can be downloaded here: |
