| Abstract: |
This study seeks to explore the impact of social upbringing on architectural learning. The theory of "habitus" helps to understand how students' personality dispositions might affect the way they approach learning in the "field" of architectural education. The notions of learning approaches and knowledge codes in literature are used to develop a framework for the study that helps to explore the field of architectural education. It is a qualitative study, conducted through semi‐structured interviews with 44 students in 10 architecture schools in Pakistan. Interviews explored students' habitus as well as their learning approaches, later explored through the framework developed in the study. Interviews are transcribed and coded using Nvivo 12. A detailed analysis explores the connection between habitus and learning approaches and finds out that habitus plays a major role in determining the way students approach learning in Architecture, with most cultivated habitus students showing a deep learning approach.
