  • Abstract:
  • When COVID-19 broke out in Wuhan, China in December 2019 and spread quickly throughout the world, and was declared a deadly disease by the World Health Organization in March 2020, the entire world was under strict lockdown. All sectors such as education can operate solely through the Internet by using ICT tools. Building instruction also has turned to a "new traditional - online courses, but with its problems as engineering programs are heavily connected to social studio settings, so the effort is a big challenge. Style Studio relies on face-to-face interaction during a physical studio environment for helpful criticism. During this 'new normal, manual drafting and model creation are replaced by advanced arrangement stages. For showcasing plan ideas, students need to develop their online presence as well as organizational skills as well as software skills. and supplant the physical studio; to degree the level of adaptation of advanced innovations within the online plan studio teaching-learning handle. The research paper focuses on architecture students & faculty challenges & opportunities in online education, two close-ended survey forms on online education by architecture faculty and students were formulated. Moreover, the study contributes to the development of design standards for establishing integrated architectural education following COVID-19. It also discusses the advantages and disadvantages of the Physical Design Studio (PDS), and Virtual Design Studio (VDS). This researcher found the importance of online education post-COVID-19 and in the future.
