Abstract

In a period of dynamic change for architectural professionalism and practice, it is
becoming increasingly relevant to identify effective ways for students to develop
reflective thinking which they will need to manage their transition from student to
practitioner and be able to respond to industry change throughout their careers. This
paper reports upon an assessment technique using an online blog which was used to
capture students’ real-time and reflective thoughts. The key elements of the brief are
discussed and the outcomes of the assessment, which included learning experiences
which were planned for as well as some which were not predicted.
