The community-based services in CSI module for SABD are to expose students to the real community living in the real-life situation. We are to cooperate as a group for structural, culture, and environmental improving activities in the communities of various of different socio-economic status and social groups. The series of community services are offered as student strengthening project, we are given the flexibility to pick and to execute the task in the most ideal way, within the budget and time limitation given. As architecture student, we were then required to propose and execute design answers to handle the analyzed issues.
On-line amass gathering is utilized as a part of this practice as a viable virtual learning exchange stage for understudies to function as a group to help each other in investigating the point of reference investigations of a picked working with social, verifiable and building significances.
Through the dynamic on-line talk gathering, understudies even outside class session will have the capacity to trade perspectives, share and open deliberation the information got from the point of reference studies to best handle and additionally to empower an exhaustive examination of the hidden reasonable thoughts of the building. This on-line gathering discourse will likewise set them up for their verbal presentation amid Studio faultfinder session.
The investigation of point of reference obliged understudies to assemble compositional data, so that they genuinely value the quintessence of the building; have inside and out comprehension of the building frameworks at work, and in addition perceive the arrangement of essential components that acknowledge outline parts of the building.
On-line Group Forum Task:
Each group is required to collectively address the questions below via TIMES WikiSpace discussion forum. As such each student in the group needs to only select just one set of questions.
All discussion must be posted in TIMES Wiki Space in the form of:
a. clear and legible photographs and scanned sketches
b. short brief /write-up.
Brief General/Background Questions:
1. i. Who was the architect or founder of the building? ii. What was the concept or philosophy of the architect or founder that makes the building historically significant / meaningful?
2. i. Where and when was the building built? ii. How the context, building period and evolution makes the building historically significant and meaningful?
3. i. What is the form, or shape of the building? ii. How the form or shape of the building contributes in making the building historically significant and meaningful?
4. i. What is the function or purpose of the building? ii. How the function or purpose of the building makes the building historically significant and meaningful?
5. i. What were the materials and construction technology or method used? ii. How the materials and construction technology or method help making the building historically significant and meaningful?

The Precedent Study and Comparative Analyses sketches and Comparative Analysis Report of 500 words form the Precedent Study & Comparative Analysis Journal. This journal need to consists of illustrative and abstractive diagrams, and annotations, which includes clarity drawings of actual and conceptual design ideas of floor plans, building sections, analyses diagrams and sketches expressing and in-depth comparative investigation of a selected case study. All sketches are to be drawn on at least 80 gram A4 drawing papers and upon submission must be creatively bond with front cover depicting information about the owner, project and logos of Taylor’s University, SABD and MASSA. Sketches should be (but not limited to) hand-drawn and hand-written as exploration of creative mixed media presentation is also highly recommended. Using the information gathered in Part A: On-line Forum provides precedent study and comprehensive comparative sketch analyses of the case study.
Students are required to generate in-depth precedent analyses that include the accounts listed below:
1. Related illustrative Architectural Historical Timeline in chronology order that highlights and explains the standing of the case study in Architecture History.
2. With reference to the timeline generates comparative analyses of the case study with the before and after architectural style.
3. With reference to the timeline explain the technology development and advancement related to the case study
PART C: ANALYSIS PRESENTATION BOARD
In the last venture of Culture and History, we were required to portray and aggregate all the imperative data and information about our given working into an A2 board. We have to amend a few oversights which we had made on our past venture and gave the right replies as indicated by our own particular given question from tutor.
A. Answers to the Precedent Study Analysis questions below:
1. How does the building reflect the spirit of the time and place for which it was built?
2. What are the initial ideas and the design concept?
3. How the initial ideas and the design concept affecting the architecture?
B 1. Building Massing Analysis
2. Partí - Culminates and Summarizes (i. gesture, ii. essence, iii, dominant idea, iv salient characteristic of the building)
