Hence, a book that looks back at 20th-century architectural education in a fresh and insightful manner—shifting attention from the ends to the means—seems to be timely indeed. By presenting many episodes worth studying and re-evaluating, this book not only shows how architecture was taught—it also offers a plethora of new insights and ideas for how it could be taught.

The question of what one could see, hear, or touch is in these pages traded for that of how students and teachers encountered and activated images, ideas, models and experiences. More than a meditation on pedagogy, this book captures a series of views on what architecture is, at precise moments, as something to impress upon its students.\" \u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eAndrew Leach\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e, University of Sydney, Australia\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntroduction: a passage to material hermeneutics \u003cem\u003eElke Couchez \u0026amp; Rajesh Heynickx \u003c\/em\u003e\u003cb\u003eSection 1: Objects on Display: Learning Through Looking \u003c\/b\u003e1.
