Featured Stories — LEX 2025: Creating Innovations to Solve Community Problems
School of Architecture in collaboration with Singapore Polytechnic from Singapore organized the "Learning Express Programme 2025". This project stems from the cooperation between the two institutions in developing teaching and learning methods and creating educational innovations through activities that emphasize Design Thinking skills. The aim is to create a space for learning and innovation between educational institutions and communities. The program selected communities in Pathum Thani province as fieldwork sites, including Communities in Village 5 and Village 13 of Khlong 3 Subdistrict, Khlong Luang District, Khlong 2 Samakkhi Community, and Baan Mankung Sanfan Nakhon Rangsit Community in Prachathipatai Subdistrict, Thanyaburi District. This allows students to explore and study the way of life, identify community problems, and use the collected data to create innovative solutions through design thinking processes.

School of Architecture in collaboration with Singapore Polytechnic from Singapore organized the "Learning Express Programme 2025". This project stems from the cooperation between the two institutions in developing teaching and learning methods and creating educational innovations through activities that emphasize Design Thinking skills. The aim is to create a space for learning and innovation between educational institutions and communities. The program selected communities in Pathum Thani province as fieldwork sites, including Communities in Village 5 and Village 13 of Khlong 3 Subdistrict, Khlong Luang District, Khlong 2 Samakkhi Community, and Baan Mankung Sanfan Nakhon Rangsit Community in Prachathipatai Subdistrict, Thanyaburi District. This allows students to explore and study the way of life, identify community problems, and use the collected data to create innovative solutions through design thinking processes.

 

 

On the opening day, students from both institutions were welcomed 
Assoc. Prof.Dr.Supachet  Chansarn, Assistant to the President for Academic Affairs, Ms. Wendy  Leck, SP Facilitator, and community representatives 
K. Somkid  Intarasaweng, President of Khlong 2 Samakkhi Community, and
