The purpose of this thesis is to develop criteria for establishing an effective course in teaching history of landscape architecture. Believing that professors, students and practicing landscape architects all have justifiable concerns and comments as to the way history of landscape architecture should be taught, questionnaires were sent to each of these groups across the country. Based on the responses to the questionnaires, coupled with information gleaned from a review of literature and the author's personal teaching experiences, the course criteria is established.
The research showed that it is important that the instructor be able to select historic periods and projects which he can effectively express in designer ' s terms. Thus, rather than outlining a detailed course curriculum, the thesis presents guide-lines for selecting course material, as well as suggestions for effective teaching methods.
