{"product_id":"pedagogy-as-creative-practice-in-architecture","title":"Pedagogy as Creative Practice in Architecture","description":"\u003cp\u003eArchitectural education in the United Kingdom performs a difficult balancing act: meeting the requirements of professional accreditation bodies and preparing students for practice, while also offering a meaningful education for those who do not intend to become architects. Increasingly, professional pressures frame architectural education as training rather than as an exploratory, experimental process – one that equips students to face unpredictable future challenges in the profession and beyond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn response, many educators develop a \u003ci\u003ehidden curriculum\u003c\/i\u003e: an implicit set of values, methods and priorities that sit alongside formal learning outcomes. This hidden curriculum tends to privilege curiosity, criticality and open-ended inquiry, often through interdisciplinary and art-based approaches. Working in the gaps between what can be specified and what must be discovered, they complicate the “university-to-practice conveyor belt” narrative and widen what architectural education can be.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book shines a light on those creative pedagogical practices – working within, and often despite, systemic pressures – and shows why they matter for the vitality of architectural education at a time of deep uncertainty across higher education. It is organised into two parts: \u003cb\u003eDiscussions\u003c\/b\u003e, which offer in-depth explorations of current challenges, and \u003cb\u003eInsights\u003c\/b\u003e, which present a selection of case studies. Together, they argue for architectural education as a space that cultivates imagination, agency and adaptive ways of thinking – qualities essential for shaping futures that are not yet known.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book provides essential reading for educators and advanced students of architecture.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Product","offer_id":57486718927192,"sku":"9781041089599","price":192.2,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781041089599.jpg?v=1781089263","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/pedagogy-as-creative-practice-in-architecture","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
