HEYING.
REFLECTION.
In conclusion, the completion of the AHT journey has been a captivating and enriching experience. This program has provided extensive insights into architectural development, spanning from ancient times to the modern era. Throughout this module, I honed my Discipline-Specific Knowledge (TGC 1.0) by applying architectural theories, exploring various styles across different eras, and completing assignments focused on booklets and posters. Additionally, I significantly improved my ability to articulate and visualize ideas using drawings and graphics, thereby enhancing my communication skills (TGC 4.0).
​
This journey also fostered my critical thinking and problem-solving skills (TGC 3.0), instilling a mindset of lifelong learning (TGC 2.0). One instance was when I encountered challenges with an unfamiliar AR app. Despite initial struggles, I proactively researched and watched tutorials, recognizing the opportunity to acquire new skills beneficial in the long run.
​
However, memorizing architectural history theories for exams proved challenging for me. Managing time effectively has been an ongoing hurdle, especially as I tend to delve deeply into details, leading to time constraints. I am determined to improve in this aspect going forward.
​
Overall, by the end of this session, I anticipate having enhanced my skills in expressing architectural components through visual mediums and deepened my comprehension of architectural theory by exploring intentions, concepts, patterns, disciplines, architectural language, and contextual relationships.
LEARNING EXPERIENCES.
The architecture history and theory module proved both enthralling and intermittently laborious, yet held profound value.
Through Project 1, delving into Malaysia's Dewan Bahasa dan Pustaka historic structure with my cohort not only acquainted me with unfamiliar architectural facets but also honed my collaborative skills through adept delegation and seamless communication. Project 2, a solitary endeavor, broadened my cognizance of global architectural marvels across diverse historical epochs, guiding the bedrock of my architectural comprehension.
Throughout, the constant guidance from mentors was immensely treasured, offering lucidity and steering clear of ambiguity in each assignment, an indispensable support for a novice venturing into the realm of architecture.
