La educación en las facultades de arquitectura durante el confinamiento: la Escuela de Valencia (ETSA-UPV)

What is it about?

The declaration of the alarm state in Spain approved to manage the COVID-19 pandemic, led to the population’s home lockdown. As consequence, the teaching of all the degrees taught at the Polytechnic University of Valencia (UPV) was transferred to a remote online modality. The aim of this study is to verify the effect of the methodological change on the most important indicators of the degrees, such as success and satisfaction rates. In the case of education in the Faculty of Architecture, the consequences of the loss of face-to-face attendance on the different types of subjects will be analyzed: for example, the graphic subjects, which were harmed, or the guided subjects that benefited due to students getting an unexpected time. It will also show the effect of the change in the evaluation model, which had to be carried out remotely, leading to historical success rates in some technical subjects.
