Thanks for your patience during our recent outage at scalar.usc.edu. While Scalar content is loading normally now, saving is still slow, and Scalar's 'additional metadata' features have been disabled, which may interfere with features like timelines and maps that depend on metadata. This also means that saving a page or media item will remove its additional metadata. If this occurs, you can use the 'All versions' link at the bottom of the page to restore the earlier version. We are continuing to troubleshoot, and will provide further updates as needed. Note that this only affects Scalar projects at scalar.usc.edu, and not those hosted elsewhere.

Then from 1997 to 1999 I became assistant undergraduate researcher within an innovation and research group led by Prof. Esteban de Manuel Jerez, which studied the transmission of architectural drawing in terms of teaching-learning processes, also analysing cross-disciplinary issues of social and environmental sustainability.
The group designed a Form Analysis course (for the 1998-99 academic semester) entirely devoted to generating proposals for turning Seville into a more sustainable city. All this work was subsequently presented in several articles and published on Seville University's Revista de Enseñanza Universitaria, as well as in papers we presented together at conferences on Architectural Graphics in Santiago de Compostela (1998) and Barcelona (2000).
This fellowship (my first experience in a university department) was an extraordinary learning experience because of Esteban de Manuel de Jerez focus and expertise in pedagogy with a social approach.
