Learning outcomes
|
The lectures are focused on the study of the theory of construction history. The aim of the course is to acquaint students with basic theories and methodological procedures of documentation, analysis and interpretation of cultural information contained in the material historical sources. The course focuses on the issues of the information contained in the dissolving artifacts in selected circuits introduces students to the state of knowledge, especially in methodology of researching historical buildings.
The student is able to acquire, process and interpret information from historical sources based on the knowledge of research methods and techniques of formal data analysis.
