Learning unit contents
The project organised in the second period of block 2 focuses on the study of sites in an urban environment in Brussels (or in another Belgian city), but on a larger scale than that covered in the first period of block 2.
After studying the neighbourhood scale in the first term, the analysis and project will focus more on the interaction of different elements and on the development of projects on an urban or metropolitan scale.
This project consists of several parts organised by one or more teachers.
Each exercise requires the student to
observe the (urban) environment in which they find themselves
analyse the elements that make up this urban environment and their coherence;
associate an evaluation with this perception;
formulate development options for the sites in question;
justify the approaches, assessments and options taken
Learning outcomes of the learning unit
Use and integrate information of various types (maps at different scales, descriptions, statistics).
- Be able to perceive an environment and describe it using its constituent elements.
- Identify the conflicts and potential of an environment.
- Be able to suggest avenues for development and justify the approaches and methodologies chosen.

Further information:
Project' type activities (introduction followed by independent work).
The work is individual, unless otherwise stated, and the subject of the work is communicated and explained during the 1st workshop.
The workshop is not just the room where the work is done, but rather the work group formed around the project.
The workshop requires everyone to be present in class; the workshop is the discussion platform for the project theme.
The students prepare a checklist for each day of the workshop so that each student has the same amount of time to talk to the teachers.
The interviews with the teachers are based on data provided by the students. It is therefore essential that students prepare documents in advance to serve as a basis for this discussion.
These documents must be printed and scaled. They will be posted on the walls for discussion.
Course materials and recommended or required readings
Useful lectures will be communicated during the sessions (studios).
