Abstract: “With the growing trend of applying Evidence-based Design in the field of landscape architecture, it has become necessary to equip undergraduate landscape architectural students with systematic and scientific research competence. This article shares the authors experience in delivering a Research and Design module in an undergraduate landscape programme for three years. In the module, Project-based Learning approaches have been employed to tackle challenges as an action research. Effectiveness and lessons learnt are discussed. It is important to keep close observation on students performance and listen to their feedback, so as to adjust teaching and learning strategies timely for education improvement.”
