Abstract

Beginning from the year 2020, covid-19 pandemic has imposed on the abrupt necessity to change the teaching pedagogy - from face-to-face to online method- upon architectural schools, worldwide..The main challenge for academicians is to maintain the quality of architecture education, and ultimately its expected learning outcomes amongst undergraduate architecture students. The issue inquires upon how the new online teaching pedagogy (OTP) can sustain the quality of teaching method for students’ active learning experience, and simultaneously achieving the course learning outcomes. Many recent researches have been done on the effectiveness of OTP in design studio based courses, post Covid-19 outbreaks, but not much on the theory subject courses. This is a research gap in the study of effectiveness of OTP in the undergraduate’s theory subjects such as the History-and-theory-of-architecture course. In addition, the study emphasises on student-oriented active experiential learning. It attempts to relate the importance of students’ accomplishments at the receiving end of the OTP’s execution. Hence, this research aims to evaluate the effectiveness of the OTP of History-and-Theory-of-Architecture-3 subject at KAED, IIUM architecture school. The objectives are to evaluate the effectiveness of OTP from students’ active online experiential learning, and to measure the effectiveness of OTP in achieving the course learning outcomes from the students’ perspectives. The research methods include a descriptive content analysis and semi-open-ended questionnaire survey on 47 out of 57 samples students. The results have demonstrated that the current OTP approach in the course is indeed effective in obtaining good students’ performance results through their active experiential learning and its approach towards the subject’s interpretation has also proven to be effective from the students’ perspectives. The challenges facing the OTP strategies is in finding the right balance between the active online learning experience and the execution of online courseworks. Future research can further be explored in a bigger context amongst other architectural institutions in moving forward towards a transformative and experiential teaching and learning to achieve better architectural education.
