Abstract
The crucial challenges of the architecture and planning designs today: the climatic changes,
the fast growing urbanisation of the environments, the financial crisis, the impact of design by
computer, the need of knowledge basic designs etc, all these challenges can be the starting
point for an architectural education renewal.
Our proposal can be, then, optimistic, in the middle of a very complex and difficult scenario.
Sometimes, the worst scenarios can be the seed for radical innovation, and we will try to describe
this possibility of positive changes in architectural education, if, and only if, some conditions
are accomplished. The work has three parts: first, a pedagogic meditation taking into
account the last ideas about how our body and our mind behave in order to know challenges
of a general architectural education to day. The second part, it is the consideration of design
as a responsive «creative chronotope», using the definitions of the late Russian thinker Mikhail
Bakhtin, in order to take advantage of our professional circumstances today. And, finally, the
third part, will deal with the institutional aspect of architectural education and with the need
for new «scenarios» for more effective schools of architecture in our universities.
