analysis of the relation between perception of the time concepts and the critical approach of architectural students to history; case study: architecture students of islamic azad university of qazvin

In the process of time perception, humans continually try to find the link between the past,present, and future periods. this matter becomes more important, when one tries to understand the eventsand their outcome; both in the daily dialogue of humans and in the critical encounter with history. truly,how much do the current events affect our reading of the future? or, to what extent can our expectationfrom the future change the interpretation of past events? thinking about such issues further illustratesthe importance of the concept of time. this article will answer the question: “what is the relationshipbetween the various types of concept of time in the daily life of the students and the definition that theyhave achieved in the academic environment?” our assumption is: “although the patterns of daily behaviorof students can be the same, but the acquired commentary of architecture students to the concept of timeis different from each other; due to learning in architecture.” also, the statistical population in this studyis the architecture students, and the architecture students of qazvin islamic azad university (qiau)have been selected as a sample population. in the process of writing, first, the data collected in a logicalreasoning method determine the theoretical framework of the article; and then the research findings areobtained with a survey approach and the questionnaire. based on the results obtained, although the dailylife of architectural students demonstrates the high role of linear conception, the multiactive concept oftime has the highest impact on their critical view of architectural narratives, and on the student’s acquiredcommentary. such an approach leads students to a complex understanding of historical narratives.
