The design process in Architectural Design Studio’s first classes for students is often based on images that are erroneously used as references by copying some formal choices. In the most general sense, this issue is related to a gap between architectural culture and society, as architecture is considered a virtual and consumable object. Those problems could be faced with an old but still effective tool that is the metaphor. Architecture is mainly known by images, and each image has a visible and an invisible part; the latter concerns the culture that underlies it. The paper assumes the metaphor is a design tool that can be helpful in the initial stages of the design process as it allows anyone to quickly connect images, ideas, and experiences, getting deeper into the invisible part of images. Since the metaphor is mainly a linguistic agent, most of the studies concern the use of the metaphor in the field of theoretical criticism and for reviewing other projects. The paper proposes to integrate this approach by investigating the metaphor to support the transfer of shapes and figures between different architectures. Furthermore, the proposed process foresees a permanent part based on the type of dynamic and more mobile part where metaphorical thinking finds space. Therefore, two types of use of the metaphor are put forward: the first interprets existing buildings by recognising both linguistic metaphors used by the critics and those crystallized in the architectural form; the second instead stimulates students to use visual metaphors in determining the shape and volume of the project.

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to develop hypotheses regarding the factors shaping the internal motivation of academic teachers to improve their teaching skills. Teaching methods and forms of communication have become the main research context. Design/methodology/approach: The studies were based on the review of literature on motivation theory and pilot surveys. The pilot analysis was based on data visualization methods and factor analysis. Findings: The use of modern communication methods might be correlated to age, and the use of modern teaching methods to gender. The teaching methods and forms of communication with students are influenced by factors related to the need to acquire knowledge and peer pressure. Originality/value The paper stresses an important aspect of the work of an academic teacher which is didactic work, which is not often taken into account in scientific research. The paper attempts to examine the factors that shape the teacher's motivation to improve their working methods in this regard.

W opracowaniu wskazano motywacje do stworzenia metody nauczania projektowania architektonicznego ProgrEsŽ, także jej podstawowe elementy składowe i próbę integrowania teorii i praktyki w procesie edukacji. Poszczególne składniki programowe metody wdrażane były w wybranych pracach studenckich, oferując krytyczną analizę metody i możliwości jej oddziaływania na całościowo rozumiane curriculum.

EN

In the paper the method of teaching architectural design - ProgrEsŽ - is described with motivations behind its implementation. Selected contents and an attempt to integrate theory and practice in process of education is discussed. Particular programmatic elements, implemented in the course of students' works, allow for critical analysis and evaluation of the impact on the entire curriculum.

Porównano efekty nauczania metodami: e-learningu oraz metodą tradycyjną, zastosowanymi w nauczaniu przedmiotu "Maszyny Rolnicze" (w trzech tematach). W obu grupach studentów (tradycyjna i e-learningowa) przeprowadzano zaliczenie w tym samym czasie. Testy zaliczeniowe były identycznej treści. Wszyscy biorący udział w głównym eksperymencie byli studentami II roku Wydziału Rolniczego. Można stwierdzić, że e-learning jest przydatnym narzędziem wspomagającym nauczanie przedmiotu technicznego na studiach wyższych. Szczególną zaletą jest ogromne znaczenie motywacyjne. Jednakże, ponieważ studenci uczeni e-learningowo nie są bezpośrednio kontrolowani, wymaga się od nich więcej samodyscypliny.

The researchers compared the results of teaching using two methods: e-learning and conventional, for the subject "Farm Machines" (in three topics). Both student groups (conventional and e-learning) were getting credits for the subject at the same time. Credit tests were identical in content. All participants in the main experiment were 2-nd year students at the Department of Agriculture. The research has showed that e-learning is a useful tool supporting teaching of technical subject at a university level. Its particular advantage is an immense motivating value. However, since students taught using the e-learning method are beyond direct control, they are required to have more self discipline.
