Module 7 Videos

Architecture: The Science of Design

1) This video shows how high-rises are built so that they don’t fall. What I found interesting were all the factors that come together so that a high rise stays standing no matter what the elements are.

2) The video and the text both show that it is very important to have a strong foundation in architecture.

3) I enjoyed the video, before watching this I didn’t really know about the science of architecture and it helped me understand it a little bit.

4) I choose this video because I thought that it would be interesting to learn something about the science of architecture.

Classical Architecture

1) I learned that there are three types of Greek styles, Doric, Ionic, and Corinthian. Also two types of Roman styles, Tuscan and Composite.

2) This video talks about the same types of architecture like the Greek and Roman styles that where mentioned in both video and text.

3) I found watching and listening about Greek and Roman architecture was a lot more interesting and easier to understand than reading about it in the text.

4) I picked this video because by the title alone it seemed like it was going to be very similar to the Architecture: The Science of Design and I figured picking to similar videos would make them more enjoyable to watch and blog about.
