Processes and Strategies for Assessing Social Responsibility Learning in Community-Engaged Pedagogy: An Architectural Design Studio Perspective
Structures for Inclusion 2017 Conference
(2017)
Abstract
This article offers insights on course design elements and assessment strategies creating experiences and measures for social responsibility learning in architectural design education. The learning, a least considered and most overlooked concept in architecture, is where most design pedagogies fall short in educating. The following questions frame the study: What are some useful tactics to make community-based learning integrations more successful? What are some techniques to help measuring social responsibility outcomes? After mapping the literature, explaining the context, and analyzing the process, the article looks into applied assessment tools and strategies. Closer investigations reveal the approach taken in making the intangible concept of social responsibility more tangible, hence, further measurable for course evaluation purposes.
