Abstract
The necessity to switch to remote learning as a result of the pandemic creates new challenges in terms of teaching freehand drawing to the students of architecture. The purpose of this article is to present the experiences and problems arising from on-line teaching of freehand drawing in the Faculty of Architecture at Cracow University of Technology (FA-CUT), Kraków, Poland, in the spring semester of 2020, and to highlight the importance of including the key issues in freehand drawing classes through the right selection of topics. A study carried out recently has led to a conclusion that remote learning hinders interaction between students and their teacher. The best environment to learn to think and draw conclusions from students’ own work is a live meeting in a drawing room. The more intense the interaction between students and their teachers, the better the pedagogical outcomes. Remote learning is the most challenging in the case of students with poor drawing skills or those who are inactive. On-line learning promotes remote collaboration. Nevertheless, the lack of emotional aspects of the dialogue and social contact have an adverse impact on students’ achievements.
