| description | Traditional lecture-based pedagogy has remained fundamentally unchanged.
This is particularly true with the teaching of History of Architecture where trends
of contents and education have not changed. The research finds that Islamic
architecture's discourse is a complex subject with multiple narratives that are
often swept under a metanarrative, positioned as the ‘other’ towards Western
history. Passive learning of knowledge could lead learners to experience
cultural alienation, detaching students from contemporary issues. The research
argues for an in-depth inquiry into the syllabus design as a pedagogical tool
towards critical learning of History of Architecture with a focus on Islamic
architecture. The purpose of the research is to design a course syllabus that
could facilitate dialogue in class. The research posits that developing the
syllabus focusing on the contents of history and theory can facilitate critical
learning among students, to identify multiple histories and narratives within
Islamic architecture. The research uses an integrated case study and grounded
theory methodology to analyse hybrid data collection from interviews,
document and case studies in the course syllabus. The outcome of this
research is a theoretical framework of contents that would aid critical dialogue
in the subject of Islamic architecture. Materials of diverse context and problems
facilitate learning, enabling students to construct an encompassing
understanding of Islamic architecture. |
