Data collection identification terms was carried out Erasmus+ Strategic Partnership titled Enhancing Heritage Awareness Sustainability Built Environment Architectural Urban Design Higher Education (HERSUS). After process filtering, interpretation, comparison project findings, three-fold comprehensive conducted: (a) learning outcome quantitative analysis, (b) cross-cutting spatial scales course types, (c) synthesis. results reinforces different pedagogical approaches derived as result applied process. main conclusions are concerned applicability framework, designed improvement existing development courses programme contents.
