From Critical to Transformative Pedagogy in Architectural Education

Transformative pedagogy is a contemporary educational ideal intended to actively promote the transformation of the life and inner perception of the learner and his/her community. It emerged at the dawn of the 21st century from a line of counter-hegemonic thought that has been called emancipatory, liberal, radical or critical in the effort to chart a new direction for post-industrial education. This paper addresses the struggle of architectural education to maintain its aim as an emancipatory practice within an ever-evolving disciplinary culture.
