Bamboo is one of the natural resources that are easy to find in forests, villages, and riversides area of tropical countries like Indonesia. On the other hand, architecture education in Indonesia has not focused much on bamboo as the potential architectural design material. Whereas bamboo has many potencies for many elements in architecture design. Architecture education is a possible way to explore and develop bamboo as an architectural element and introduce its potencies to the local communities. This paper is the initial desk study of multiphase research on the contribution of bamboo materials in architecture education towards sustainable community development. The objective of this paper is to explain the gap in the vast research topics on bamboo in order to define further research on how architecture education pays attention to the significance of bamboo as a sustainable material. The result shows that research topics on bamboo material are vastly developed in some areas and on the contrary is rarely explored in other areas of research. Research in architecture education and its teaching strategies to elevate the comprehension of the students on the topic of sustainable materials such as bamboo is hardly found.

As a social being, interaction with others is one of human's essential needs. These interaction and socialization in a society is often conducted in a settlement. A settlement as a community ecosystem has an important role in shaping people's characters in a society. The condition of settlement can be an indication of the condition of its community. On the other hand, Islam as a rahmatan lil 'alamin religion actually provides its followers a set of values on islamic aspects in the house and settlement. Islam gives some lessons of how a house could become not only as a gathering place for family members, but could also be a place of education and learning for its inhabitants. Islam also gives us lessons of how a house is closely related to its settlement and environment, and how every elements in a house should be in harmony and unity with its social and natural environment. This paper tries to analyze many aspects of slums based on some aspects of islamic housing. The deficiencies and problems found in slums are expected as a consideration in the future efforts to overcome the problems holistically and integrally.

Sebagian besar interaksi dan sosialisasi antar manusia di dalam sebuah masyarakat diwadahi di dalam permukiman. Permukiman yang merupakan sebentuk ekosistem masyarakat dalam beraktivitas tentunya memiliki peran yang sangat potensial sebagai pembentuk karakter masyarakat tersebut.

These aspects are aspects of the assessment of the Comprehensive Assessment Built Environment Efficiency - Urban Development (CASBEE-UD) index. Based on calculations it is known that the index for the East Surabaya region is (B +) Good, this index shows the quality level of the region one level below the quality of sustainable areas. The index results indicate that the region is approaching a sustainable status.
