    Cognitive Strategies of Analogical Reasoning in Design: Differences Between Expert and Novice Designers
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2013) Özkan, Özgü; Doğan, Fehmi
    This study investigates differences in analogical reasoning among first, second, and fourth year students and expert architects. Participants took part in an experiment consisting of four tasks: rating source examples, selecting a source domain, explaining their selection, and designing a bus stop. The results indicate significant differences among participants with respect to their soundness ratings. The results also show significant relation between level of expertise and participants' selection of source categories, the stated reasons for their selection, and the type of similarity they established between source and target. We conclude that experts preferred ‘mental hops’ while first year students preferred ‘mental leaps.’ Second and fourth year students preferred neither ‘mental leaps’ nor ‘mental hops’ but to literally copy the sources.

    Conceptualization by Visual and Verbal Representations: an Experience in an Architectural Design Studio
    (Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2010) Çıkış, Şeniz; Ek, Fatma İpek
    In current educational practices within the discipline of architecture, the systematic use of conceptualization within the design process has not yet been extensively developed and applied. Though utilizing concepts within the design process has been discussed hitherto by educators and scholars, the conventional education system in architectural design may prevent its proper application in the studio process. Furthermore, because conceptualization describes an activity that has peculiarly visual and verbal dimensions, the coordinated use of drawing and language as the representation systems also refers to the main character of the design process. In these respects, by offering a systematic alternative for conceptualization within the design process, this study presents a new educational pattern. The study was implemented during the sixth semester of the architectural design studio and includes an examination of the relationships and functions of drawing and language as the very media of conceptualization within the discipline of architecture.
