In response to the rapid advancement of contemporary technologies and learning needs of digital native university students, architectural design education and curriculum must be arranged with a more forward-looking understanding of the trends in technology development. In addition, teachers should recognize students’ learning characteristics to develop ideal architectural design curriculum. Therefore, developing the curriculum based on integrated thinking facilitates the structure of learning systems and logical arrangement of curriculum. The architectural design studio based on integrated thinking is compared to the operating system of a smart phone, rather than a software application. The architectural design studio should be the core of architectural education to connect learners, educational resources, and other curriculum so as to construct a comprehensive education process for students to develop professional architectural knowledge and skills. The architectural design education program of the Department of Architecture of the National Cheng Kung University was incorporated as an example to illustrate how architectural design curriculum facilitate their teaching dialectics according to the theoretical framework as described in this paper. This paper also presents the unique role of architectural design curriculum for new students in said architectural education system. Derived discussion and teaching experiments were integrated with actual cases of teaching to expound how the proposed teaching method extends the cumulative outcomes of teaching dialectics.Interpretive research method has been applied to this research, and the research perspective is based on the researcher’s long-term participation in the basic design studio and the accumulated observation from the teaching experience.
