Abstract

The paper explores the ongoing PhD research work being done to classify the students’ approaches to learning in architectural education through an international perspective. The research hypothesis and Phenomenography - the qualitative methodology used for this research are explored; in addition to learning approaches in architectural education are reviewed. The results of the pilot study conducted to understand the phenomenographic approach are discussed with reference to earlier studies in higher and university education. The paper attempts to present ‘the way forward,’ by initiating a discussion within the research community on this research journey adopted in search of this classification.
