History and Theory

Introduction   Programme   List of Participants

First EAAE-ENHSA Sub-network Workshop on Architectural Theory & History

Content and Methods of Teaching Architectural Theory in European Schools of Architecture

Department of Architecture
PHL - Campus Diepenbeek
Member of the Association of Hasselt University
Belgium , 21-23 September 2006

This is the first sub-network workshop in the field of architectural theory. It therefore attempts to investigate and chart the various ways in which schools position courses dealing with this discipline in the curriculum. It wants to address history, contents, aims and objectives as well as the means, methods and pedagogic practices required to ensure expected learning outcomes and competences. As many European schools of architecture are faced with the challenge of establishing a more 'research based' curriculum and implementing plain research activity, the workshop will also want to deal with this aspect. This first encounter will further act as a social platform for getting to know colleagues who share similar interests
