In Poland, e-learning already has a tradition that goes back over a decade. The Covid-19 pandemic has placed new challenges before all fields of life – including all levels of education. They now encompass almost ten months of experience in teaching at faculties of architecture – including the teaching of engineering modules. The construction and materials science module is key here as it provides the basis for developing construction-phase designs. This module is typically a significant teaching problem and the current situation concerning teaching has exacerbated this. This is a serious challenge for students and teachers alike. Preparation and delivery of online design studio classes requires more time. Instructors should also intensify their self-education efforts. However, there is nothing that can replace interpersonal master–student relationships, contacts, inspiration by peers, practical training and laboratory research.
