| Course Objectives: | The aim of the City and Culture course is to teach students to read, understand, and analyze the city in its various dimensions. The course's scope includes explaining the concepts of city and culture and their relationship. |
|
The students who have succeeded in this course; 1. They will have a general knowledge of urban culture, 2. They will have information about the evolution of cities, 3. Will be able to compare the effects of different social and cultural groups in cities on urban space, 4. Will be able to discuss today's cities with many dimensions (social, political, historical, architectural, etc.). |
| The historical background of the relationship between city and culture, the effect of globalization on the transformation and change of today's cities, the effort to create a brand city, the protection of cultural values, the concept of sustainability, the importance of public spaces (squares and streets), the spatial and social reflections of housing culture on cities will be evaluated. At the end of the semester, the student will be able to evaluate the relationship between city and culture in many aspects. Teaching Methods and Techniques Used in the Course: Lecture, Individual Study, Differentiation, Observation, Reading, Case Study, Discussion, Problem Solving, and Other. |
