What is Architecture Education

Chapter 15
Transforming Curriculum Through Teacher-Learner Partnerships
The architectural education for undergraduates are defined as Part 1 in Malaysia which requires students to demonstrate clear and logical architectural designs and academic portfolio, the ability to integrate knowledge of the principles of building technologies, environmental design and construction methods and the impact on design of legislation, codes of practice and health and safety both during the construction and occupation of a project. program of study for 3 years and equivalent to Board of Architects Malaysia or Lembaga Arkitek Malaysia, LAM Part 1 pre-professional examination, which is the first level of a two-part board examination. All architecture students are required to pass the LAM Part 1 and 2 Examination before they are eligible to register as Graduate Architects with LAM.

Abstract
Project-based learning offers an engaging instructional method to make learners active constructors of knowledge. This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of learning in two project-based learning of construction through model making in architecture using a case study and by designing. Model making is an innovative and time-consuming approach in teaching construction as this approach rely heavily on student-teacher partnership mimicking the studio learning. Learning construction through model making needs students to take an active role and to be ‘in-charge' of their learning and learning process. The study employs a survey to 78 participants of undergraduate architecture students. The results of this study demonstrated architecture students learn construction effectively using the model making method. This project-based learning allows students to have construction knowledge to consider buildability in their architecture design studio. The result can be used to improve teaching and learning of construction in architectural education.
