Abstract:
Once a student asked me before class: what are we going to do tomorrow? I said: I don’t know, we will see tomorrow how it goes. The objective of this paper is to confront two different ways of learning, the class versus on site. We usually think that planning for planning might be the solution, but what happens when planning leaves so little chance to chance? Sometimes approaching design problems without a plan, but with tools and scenarios, works better for a student and community. We will confront these two systems for the same design problem to see which deliver better results for the community and the student’s learning process. Which system will make us ready for the unexpected, for the un-planned, for a future scenario where resources will be limited and non-expected, global warming, oil production decrease?
