Educational Project to Improve Problem-Based Learning in Architectural Construction Courses Using Active and Co-operative Techniques

This article presents a Project for Teaching Innovation (PTI) for the improvement of teaching practices in the Construction 1 course at the Architecture School of Barcelona (ETSAB). Since the 1980s this course has successfully made use of Problem-Basic Learning (PBL); however over the last ten years...

This PTI has been designed and implemented with the intention of solving this situation, and has been evaluated to determine the viability of its application.
