2. Course Introduction(no more than 500 words)

This course is jointly offered by the architectural heritage teams of Wuhan University and the National University of Singapore. Its aim is to guide undergraduate students in deeply understanding the core value of architectural heritage as a carrier of local culture, and to explore its protection and regeneration strategies in contemporary society. The course centers on critical thinking and, in combination with emerging technologies, explores the diverse paths of architectural heritage in cultural continuity, community activation, and cross-cultural narratives, helping to tell the story of heritage in China and within the context of the "Belt and Road Initiative."

Starting with the cultural value of architectural heritage, the course analyzes its significance as a historical memory and a local spiritual anchor, while reflecting on the limitations of traditional preservation theories. It introduces a critical preservation perspective, and through case studies such as historical neighborhoods in Asia and industrial heritage sites, it explores the contradictions between preservation and development. The course will also cover the applications of digital and artificial intelligence technologies, various regeneration strategies, and related case studies, emphasizing the balance between community participation and economic sustainability. On this basis, the course returns to the cultural narrative function of heritage, exploring how to reshape local character, restore historical memory, and give architectural heritage contemporary significance in a cross-cultural context.
