Background, History, & Philosophy of the Studio

Experience

How It Works: Comparing to the Way We Used to Teach

Pre-Studio• Cascading courses

• Limited interaction of students between courses

• Assigned tools• Reliance on instructors for

tool teaching• Required Attendance• Project standards

enforced by instructors

602 605 714

Studio• Community

• Collaboration, critiques among all students

• Tool contracts

• Mixture of teaching resources

• Few mandatory classes

• “Bar” pushed higher by students
