Abstract

Pachyderm Acoustic Simulation is a professional tool for geometrical and numerical simulation of acoustics in the built environment that happens to be open source under the General Public License. Over the course of the 14 year life of the open-source acoustics simulation project, Pachyderm Acoustic has had the privilege of partnering with numerous academic institutions worldwide to educate architecture and engineering students in acoustics. This has been in the form of support for student projects, lectures and workshops on acoustics simulation and other topics, and, in some cases, PHD advice. This session will explore several notable examples of successful pedagogy using the open source software as a tool for higher education. There will also be some discussion of approaches to pedagogy that have not been as successful, in an effort to further discussion regarding an appropriate approach to higher learning in acoustics.
