Keith E. Hedges, AIA, NCARB

Professor of Architecture

Keith teaches the architectural structures sequence for the Hammons School of Architecture. He is a registered architect with graduate degrees in architecture, structural engineering, and education (design and learning technologies). He has taught full-time for over twenty years and has developed a teaching repertoire exceeding twenty university courses for architecture and engineering programs. The courses range from architectural design to engineering technologies. Keith developed the parti pris pedagogy, a backward instructional design model for teaching introductory structures to architecture students.

Keith brings over thirty refereed papers and two dozen presentations mostly regarding emergent pedagogies and the nature of digital technologies intervening in higher education. He presented scholarship at notable international venues such as the University of Oxford and the Eidgenössische Technische Hochschule. Keith is the editor-in-chief of the Architectural Graphic Standards (Student Edition), and served on the advisory board for the previous student edition. He served on the Project Committee and Design Workgroup for the National BIM Standard (NBIMS) Version 2.

Keith received two national AIA awards for innovative curriculum development through the AIA Technology in Architectural Practice (TAP) BIM Awards. He was published twice in The AIA Report on University Research (Volumes 4 and 5). His scholarship was supported by a grant through the national AIA Board Knowledge Committee for the RFP (Research for Practice) Research Program. He earned two best paper awards at the regional and national level. Keith received the Drury University Faculty Award for Scholarship and the Drury University President’s Award of Excellence for Community Engagement.
