“…Architecture projects are based on processes and procedures that differ from time to time due to the level of interaction between students, instructors, and projects. Therefore, some level of communication, interactions, and interpretations always is needed in design studios (Mugerauer, 1995;Tafahomi & Chance, 2023).…”

“…The design studio in both art and architecture includes a big room with some drawing tables and chairs for the students to do practical drawings of the different parts of the building, from the abstract concepts to the detailed aspects of the design and construction (Garric, 2017;Griffin, 2022;Tafahomi & Chance, 2023). All activities of the students take place in the design studio, such as studies, drawing, physical model making, and presentations for the example (Tafahomi, 2021b).…”

COVID-19 has challenged educational systems in whole parts of the world, including convenient courses and programs such as architecture. The architecture program is designed based on the design studios that deliver major parts of the activities in the program, such as design productions, project presentations, and receiving comments on the design activities from both instructors and juries. To test the students' satisfaction level with social interactions in design studio activities, a five-scale questionnaire was designed, and through Google Forms, the results were analyzed in SPSS. The findings reveal that communication, social interaction, and design activities are significant for the students. The students demonstrate overall satisfaction with the quality of the course delivery. However, the detailed design illustrates that students and instructors adopted an adapted way to the condition to reduce the risk by minimizing the group work and increasing the individual desk crits. This result shows that teamwork and peer learning were reduced during the pandemic.
