The evolving future of teaching architecture: new and enduring ideas, approaches and practicalities for academics

This chapter will identify and explore various strands of studio teaching practice that already exist and have the potential to endure as architectural education faces various pressures, from several directions: essentially architectural forces, such as regulatory changes and educational shifts, to much wider external influences, such as the climate emergency and artificial intelligence.

Fundamentally, this chapter seeks to give architectural educators the agency to test, fail and try again, which is supported through a toolkit of ideas and from the shared experiences of others. In doing so we hope to contextualise concerns within a range of global settings, through different lenses and by highlighting alternative educational models, programmes and projects of our own.
