Welcome Back Architectural Skills 2: Thoughts About Attending Online Lectures
Architectural Skills 2 is the second in a series of architectural engineering courses at the University of Cincinnati. At the time of this posting, COVID19 rages on in the US, and school is back in session in the Fall Semester 2020. For most students this means several online courses. Studio courses differ from lecture format classes. Since it may be confusing to some students how it will work this term, associate professor Eric Inglert provides guidance about how our course will be managed online.
