Exploratory Investigation of the Impact of Professional Architectural Education on Tendencies Toward Work Collaboration
Abstract
The exploratory study investigates the impact of professional architectural education on tendencies toward work collaboration. First-year Architecture Students and fourth-year students from Texas A&M University were involved in this research. The Maroon-White game was selected as my research tool. The study participants also took the human metrics test of Jung/Isabel Briggs Myres Typology before the day of administering the Maroon-White game.
When the average tendencies to collaborate for the first-year Architecture Students and the final-year Architecture Students were calculated from the end results of the Maroon-White game, there appeared a mild decrease of 6.08% in the tendencies to collaborate from the first-year to the fourth-year. However, in order to achieve statistical power to validate these results further research needs to be done.
