Crystallizing in Architectural Education

The theoreticians and teaching specialist in the recent two decades became interested in teaching methodology of architecture and taking the best educational method in order to achieve the maximum efficiency. The way of designer’s thinking has a direct effect on answering the question and the result is evident in the final design. Therefore in order to achieve the desired results, it is necessary to consider the planners of architecture educational systems, the designer’s dealing, student’s way of thinking and the design of educational methodology. The Interactive thinking model as a kind of thinking that provides the opportunity for considering a problem critically and creatively at the same time has a high capability of conforming to the designing process in architecture. on the other hand the use of interactive methodology in teaching architecture and especially the use of the Blending Learning as the second wave of E-learning removes the deficiencies of pure traditional educational systems or pure Elearning. This essay attempts, via presenting a new educational method which is a composition of Blending Learning and Interactive Thinking, to take a step in crystallizing the designing process and reaching the arenas of creative ideas in designing and to present the new method in architecture teaching.
