The current diversity of resources found on the internet marks a shift in the process of generation of new contents by architecture. This also affects the ways of learning it. The concern of this research is to observe this shift and to test the educative potential of transforming based on existing models. The case study used is the project studio Espegel & Cánovas of Madrid’s School of Architecture, in the framework of which the design-research model based on the transformation of references is employed as a teaching methodology. The article suggests tree models for the classification of the distinct uses of references in the architectural production: use of a collection of elements as entity, reinterpretation of a single element and replication of an element in a new context. After this analysis, the operations of each category are detected and identified in the results registered by the teaching team.
