Workshop Rome 2018

Digital Pedagogy for the Architectural Education & Practice - Innovation map

It is proposed a 6 days’ workshop in Rome, for

professionals, Faculty members and students.

Key themes of the workshop might include:

a) E-Learning methodologies for architects;

Outcome day1
We’ll start by helping you envision what impact digital-
e- technologies could have on our profession and gain a
perspective on how your educational institute can plan to
adapt for future success using approaches such as GMU’s
framework for e-learning as a forecasting tool.

b) E-work and e-business in Architecture, Engineering

and Construction;
Outcome day2
Next, we will examine emerging capabilities, tools, skill sets,
and concepts such as innovation outposts that you can put to
work for your profession now. You will examine your strategy
in design and the team’s organizational structure to ensure
it supports effective innovation and identify opportunities for
optimization.

c) Training on how Smart Technologies change our

profession – a change of mentality.
Outcome day3
Finally, we will examine the role of the future innovation leader
and help you to create a roadmap for successfully navigating
your design and preparing it to become future-ready. You will
emerge with the knowledge, confidence, and tools to prepare
yourself to succeed in this future.
Work Session - The workshop will contribute to the participants, in building:

limits but also positive modifiers for regeneration that outweigh the ability of technology to overcome.
2. Data-driven use: We can explore projects based on data-driven analysis to reveal the
new capabilities, tools and skills for the same topic both on an educational but also on a
business perspective.
• The second research area seeks to combine urban regeneration with big data. We can investigate the
physical and material dimensions of the smart city inside the Italian reality with a particular focus
on the ICT sector. We will present few key principles for the conception but also design of the smart
city as an intervention method towards urban regeneration in cities. The methodology based on the
analysis of three different dimensions:
a. A multi-disciplinary assessment of the origins, defini¬tions and theoretical manifestation of the
topic from early 70s up to 2017; (theory)
b. Case studies coming from large ICT corporations and digital initiatives;
c. The application e-business models and data to specific case studies.Each one of these can be exami-
ned from three perspectives: architecture, communication, and the integration of Information and
Communication Technologies (ICT) in space and the way this process enables changes in social and
spatial practices.

d. Smart grid.
