Educated but Unprepared: Who's Really at Fault? [Part 1]

Send us a text

A frank discussion on a commentary based on Seshan Design's post in a Facebook Group. They highlighted on systemic problems where "the burden of education has quietly shifted from academia to practice", and later gave comments on the problems specifically: the lack of fundamental skills on:

1. Drawing clearly

2. Understanding how buildings put together

3. Accuracy

4. Coordination

5. Accountability

I discussed what happens (happened) and why it is a systemic problem in schools of architecture in Malaysia.
