Identifying, Analyzing and Recommending Parameters and their Weightage for the Design of an Educational Public Experience

Abstract

With the passage of time, the life in this world is getting faster and public spaces are the only spaces of interaction, relief and relaxation in urban areas. Under such circumstances, these spaces can be used as a medium for educating the public regarding various things. People can be taught many things of importance to them as well as for welfare of the community through many means and this paper attempts to explore parameters in architectural and urban design which can be used as a medium for educating the public. Further study has been done to find sub-parameters which can suggest pinpointed interventions to narrate stories and teach people through public spaces. Furthermore, statistical research on survey results has been conducted to understand the impact of these sub parameters upon the public. The data has been analyzed to find the optimal direction of research and development of certain parameters for more efficient learning spaces in public areas. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) has been carried out to identify parameters and their weightage for investing resources for the best quality of educational public spaces with minimum investment of resources. Interpretation of statistical research reveals interesting facts on which parameters should attract more expenditure in current designs and which should attract more research for future development to maximize development of public educational experiences.
