    Bachelor Programme in Town Planning and Urban Studies (Department of Architecture University of Palermo)
    (AESOP, 2019) Galland, Daniel; Pinho, Paulo; Chettiparamb, Angelique
    The Bachelor Programme in Town Planning and Urban Studies delivered at the University of Palermo brings together the following aspects of quality in planning education: — Academic curriculum: • A sufficiently broad range of appropriate disciplines that introduces and integrates disciplinary perspectives to prepare the student for an effective planning career. • A strong grounding in the spatial sciences encouraging the development of spatial skills and spatial sensibilities. — Teaching pedagogy: • The use of the ‘studio’ as a central pedagogical tool to encourage collective and experiential learning. • The use of an appropriate range of pedagogic techniques through workshops to complement and target specific learning needs beyond the studio. — Elements of distinctiveness: • A distinctive focus on cultural heritage and architectural history both as a subject in itself and as a perspective for studio1based learning. • A distinctive focus on the sociological aspects of planning to encourage socio1technical reflection and learning.
