Greek Architecture

Greek Architecture

This is a course on Ancient Greek Architecture. We start by going back as far as possible to observe the origins of Greek architecture followed by the study of the residential architecture of the Ancient Greeks. We travel to the islands of Crete and Thera to study Minoan architecture, followed by Mycenean Architecture including Troy. Next, we study and examine the Greek Temples, followed by the Theaters, the Agora and the Pnyx, the beginnings of democracy. I have spent a lifetime studying, researching and enjoying Greek Architecture and Art. Everything you see here is the product of direct personal experience and study at the sites of origin. I teach lecture courses and studios as I wish they would have been taught to me. Much of the graphic material in my lectures is taken or generated first hand directly by me on site. I teach to learn. I teach subjects as I wish they were taught to me. The Mission Statement. Education is a tool for the improvement of successive generations. I hear and I forget. I see and I remember. I do and I understand. Confucius

This course is designed under the premise that humans should be taught in a way that is modeled after the educational patterns of evolution.

The design, development and application of educational systems based on the educational principles of evolution generates a philosophy and methodology of education in synchrony with the evolutionary education system that is firmly and deeply rooted in each of us.

Education for evolution is an educational system designed to help propel humans forward in the natural course of evolution. The purpose of education for evolution is to enhance and strengthen the natural evolutionary process of humans through the mechanism of education. The means to achieve this objective is the design of a curricula based on the same educational techniques and strategies used by natural evolution, enhanced and guided by the application of conscious educational decisions.
