Freehand drawing versus digital design tools in architectural teaching
PublicationThe oldest drawings resembling modern architectural designs date from the 22nd Century BC. Throughout history, the first drawings have evolved into the basic tool of the architect’s work. The exchange of information between the architect and the contractor began to take place through a drawing system, allowing to describe three-dimensional space using flat representations. With time, architectural drawings also began to resemble...

Improvements to the STEAM-based teaching of architectural drawing
PublicationThe author of this article presents a systemic approach to improving the teaching of architectural drawing courses for engineers in the 21st Century. In this era of rapid development of digital technologies, the traditional teaching structure should be redefined to a purpose-oriented dynamic model. The existing, generally accepted teaching models have already proved successfully based on the practice-oriented STEAM programme, which...

THE PANTOGRAPH AND ITS GEOMETRIC TRANSFORMATIONS - A FORMER POPULAR TOOL FOR COPYING AND SCALING
PublicationDevelopment of digital technology has resulted in significant transformations of designer workshops. Computer applications replaced the previously existing tools and methods for drawing up of projects. Professional, sophisticated drawing instruments and tools for manual plotting, as well as basic drawing aids, have gradually fallen into oblivion and become relicts of a bygone era - the objects of collectors' interest. Gdansk University...

Recognition, understanding and aestheticization of freehand drawing flowcharts
PublicationIn this paper a concept of FCA, a system for recognizing, understanding and aestheticization of freehand drawing flow charts is described. The system is based on a proposed by the author FlowGram graph grammar describing flow charts drawing. An open format FlowChartML for flow charts description is also proposed. The aestheticization criterion is formulated that allows for automatic beautification of flow charts. First experiments...

Trust and Distrust in e-Democracy
PublicationIn the digital government research literature, the concept of trust is typically used as a precondition for the adoption of digital technology in the public sector or an outcome of a roadmap leading up to such adoption. The concept plays a central role in many decisions linked to the planning, adoption and management of the public sector technology. In contrast, the concept of distrust is almost neglected in such literature but,...
