| Abstract | ||||
| At the end of the 20th century, humankind have made successive progress towards civilizational and scientific communication Digital and electronic applications have become a basis of civilizational superiority in all fields of life after they exceeded the stage of trial. Now, the more realistic question we face is: how d we as users of Sustainable ly advanced systems react positively? The paper focuses on the architectural education after the incapacity of the traditional concept to face the knowledge flow and the informatic revolution which affects labor market. The extent of failure to apply the concept of Sustainability appeared clearly in architectural education. From the beginning of that kind of education it depended on the ideas and philosophies current in every age and linked to the recent scientific and material achievements. In Egypt, the contemporary fact of architectural education still depends on traditional ideas and rules while the labor market relies on the most up-to-date technologies of age that modern mechanics and contemporary electronic education p < strong>rograms cake available considering them the fundamentals of the educational process success. Besides, it is necessary to give students the absolute freedom for the individual innovation talents to become clear. What asserts this is that the present classification of subjects in the Egyptian Universities does not adequately focus on actuating these basics at the time when electronic education becomes a necessity and not mere welfare The afore-mentioned electronic education represents respect of the individual abilities and extraordinary cap < /strong>acity to penetrate spatial, timed, and social obstacles in the educational field in general and the architectural education in particular. The application fields of architectural education are numerous such as designing, p < /em>reparing tri-dimensional sketches and models, imitation system, and the vacuum forming in addition to information system and the educational process management. Other fields are also apparent such as the electronic dialogue councils, imaginary classes, and other sides of education from afar which were applied in many international Universities. In addition, numerous researches were made to evaluate them which asserted the ability of these technologies to raise the scientific and skillful standard for students. As a result, this confirms the necessity to actuate these systems in the architectural education in Egypt beginning with putting subjective amendment for their current use in architecture departments in the Egyptian universities. The theme of study was tackled according to the following methodology: - Observing curricula, subjects, and the ways of teaching in some Egyptian Universities. - The electronic education and developed technologies in architectural education. - The study of abilities and fields of applying electronic education theories on architectural education - Towards a Sustainable electronic environment of architectural education. Throughout this study we can conclude a number of results indicating different inability in the average of using computer technology in the architectural education on the level of possibilities, teaching curricula and techniques, and the architectural application fields. This failure is due to a number of economic, organizational, and educational factors that the research seeks to study in the framework of a Sustainable strategy to develop the architectural education in Egypt through an electronic environment. | ||||
