The discipline of architecture undergoes transformation practically, cognitively, and pedagogically due to the widespread use of digital design and fabrication technologies in design processes. This paper aims to eluctade the integration of digital fabrication and computational design with architectural design education at undergraduate level. For this purpose, this study examined the undergraduate course contents and spatial conditions of leading universities with digital fabrication laboratories under three headings: digital design, digital fabrication, and spatial reflections. In addition, this research applied semi-structured interviews with the relevant faculty members of three universities that have robotic tools to obtain more detailed information about their pedagogical approaches. According to this study, the curriculum and laboratories are rapidly changing. As a result, architecture departments are expanding their facilities by building laboratories and tools that have the potential for architectural education to fill the gap between practice and theory. However, there are economic limitations to implementing digital fabrication technologies in terms of the tools and materials used by hundreds of students. This research discusses the requirements, potentials, and limitations of theoretical and practical training through digital fabrication tools that should be included in these courses in the curriculum.

TÜRKİYE'DE DİJİTAL ÜRETİM LABORATUVARLARININ VE HESAPLAMALI TASARIMIN MİMARLIK ÖĞRETİM PLANI İLE ENTEGRASYONU

Öz

Mimarlık; sayısal tasarım ve üretim teknolojilerinin mimari tasarım ve uygulama süreçlerinde yaygın olarak kullanılmaya başlamasıyla birlikte pratik, bilişsel iş akışı ve pedagojik açıdan dönüşüm geçirmektedir. Bu çalışma ise pedagojik dönüşümü dolayısıyla sayısal tasarım ve üretimin mimarlık eğitimine lisans düzeyinde entegrasyonunu ele almayı hedeflemektedir. Bu amaçla çalışmada, sayısal üretim laboratuvarlarına sahip önde gelen üniversitelerin lisans ders içerikleri ve mekânsal koşulları sayısal tasarım, sayısal üretim ve mekânsal yansımalar olmak üzere üç başlık altında incelenmiştir. Ayrıca bu araştırmada, mimarlık bölümünde kullanılabilen robotik araçlara sahip üç üniversitenin ilgili öğretim üyeleriyle yarı yapılandırılmış görüşmeler yapılarak kurumların pedagojik yaklaşımları hakkında daha detaylı bilgi edinilmiştir. Bu çalışmaya göre, mimarlık fakültelerinin müfredatları ve laboratuvarları bir dönüşüm içerisindedir. Mimarlık bölümleri, mimarlık eğitiminin pratik ve teori arasındaki boşluğu doldurma potansiyeline sahip bu laboratuvarları kurarak ve araçlar temin ederek kurumların araştırma alanını genişletmektedir. Ancak, çok sayıda öğrenci tarafından kullanılması planlanan bu araç ve malzemeler açısından sayısal üretim teknolojilerinin uygulanmasında ekonomik birtakım sınırlamalar bulunmaktadır. Özetle bu araştırma, bu alanda müfredata dahil edilmesi gereken teorik ve pratik gereklilikleri, potansiyelleri ve sınırlamalarını tartışmaktadır.
