The benefits of an additional practice in descriptive geomerty course: non obligatory workshop at the Faculty of Civil Engineering in Belgrade
Апстракт
At the Faculty of Civil Engineering in Belgrade, in the Descriptive geometry (DG) course,
non-obligatory workshops named “facultative task” are held for the three generations of freshman
students with the aim to give students the opportunity to get higher final grade on the exam. The
content of this workshop was a creative task, performed by a group of three students, offering free
choice of a topic, i.e. the geometric structure associated with some real or imagery
architectural/art-work object.
After the workshops a questionnaire (composed by the professors at the course) is given to the
students, in order to get their response on teaching/learning materials for the DG course and the
workshop. During the workshop students performed one of the common tests for testing spatial
abilities, named “paper folding".
Based on the results of the questionnairethe investigation of the linkages between:students’
final achievements and spatial abilities, as well as students’ expectations... of their performance on
the exam, and how the students’ capacity to correctly estimate their grades were associated with
expected and final grades, is provided. The goal was to give an evidence that a creative work,
performed by a small group of students and self-assessment of their performances are a good way
of helping students to maintain motivation and to accomplish their achievement.
The final conclusion is addressed to the benefits of additional workshops employment in the
course, which confirmhigherfinal scores-grades, achievement of creative results (facultative tasks)
and confirmation of DG knowledge adaption.
