Arthur Erickson on Learning SystemsTools Erickson, Arthur. Arthur Erickson on Learning Systems. Montréal, Québec: Canadian Centre for Architecture; Montréal, Québec: Concordia University Press, 2022.
Abstract (English)"First volume of the Building Arguments series conceived and co-published with Concordia University Press, Arthur Erickson on Learning Systems curates a selection of writings, conserved in the CCA collection, by an architect advocating for interdisciplinarity in his approaches to education and methods for sharing knowledge. The writings selected are put into dialogue as outlining the evolution of Erickson’s thinking, starting with his vision for the development of his mid-1960s masterpieces, the Simon Fraser University campus, his considerations of the evolution of the campus decades later, together with, in a broader scope, his vision on the evolution of education. Nuances to Erickson’s thinking are brought to light in an introduction by Melanie O’Brian, who discusses his approach to learning spaces by drawing parallels with the experience of campus users following the university expansion and increased specializations among the disciplines." -- Publisher's website.
