Email resources--Architects Newspaper, Dezeen and ?
I'm teaching studio in the US for the first time and I'm realizing my students don't look at a lot of architecture. I'm working on showing them more in studio and giving them specific precedents.
I'd like to find some resources that will essentially appear in their inboxes. I'm a bit out of touch but am wondered what I can suggest they sign up for or follow on Insta. The obvious ones to me are The Architect's Newspaper and Dezeen. Are there other's you would recommend? I mostly want them to regularly see good architecture from all over.
Honestly I'm not sure if students check email? Do y'all? The more appropriate recommendation would probably be Instagram... I haven't seen much architecture on TikTok or YouTube. Maybe ask them to bring in websites/accounts to share with the class as an assignment. "How to learn through media consumption... etc."
A different pedagogical approach would be to differentiate studio learning, rather than trying to interfere in their social media consumption. Bring in a bunch of books and magazines from the library. They probably haven't spent time appreciating the depth that monographs and the like offer. Heck, they could probably use help learning how to use a library. Institutions should offer students something they can't get anywhere else, IMO, so physical media and slower research skills would be great to introduce. They should know what different kinds of stuff they'll find in GA versus Casabella versus A+U versus El Croquis.
This is one site I'll always recommend: https://usmodernist.org/
