A Summer School Experience in Architectural Design Education: An Evaluation on Student Performance

Studio training is the training process in which students' ideas and designs are expected to be projected at the end of the term by providing the development of the project in the given program and time. It is aimed that the student learns the design process rather than transferring design knowledge in architectural education. Unlike normal education in architecture education, summer school is a period of education that allows students to take courses at different universities in limited time. In this study, in the same period conducted by two different lecturers in two different studios simultaneously within the scope of Sel？uk University Summer School, a workshop was held with the participation of 5 and 6 studio students within the scope of the common project area and common needs program. The aim of the study is to examine the process of summer school period in a limited time in architecture education, its limitations, planning and the difference of summer school from the normal period. As a result, the continuity ratios and project outcomes of the students were examined, the problems they experienced in summer school and the solutions produced for them were included
