| Summary: | In the field of architectural technology studies, sustainability and digitalisation play a crucial role, leading to significant changes in current educational programmes. At KEA’s Bachelor in Architectural Technology and Construction Management, the curriculum incorporates sustainability, advanced technology, and business expertise into building design, production and planning. This research focuses on early Information, Communication, and Technology (ICT) agreements using Project-Based Learning methodologies. The goal is to meet current and upcoming European regulations related to sustainability and digitalisation in building projects by proposing an ICT Process Manual Prototype as a new educational tool. The research involves revising lecturer plans, surveying industry practices, and designing an ICT Process Manual tailored to architectural technology programmes. Methodologically, the study uses qualitative data from deskwork, surveys from Danish industry stakeholders, and didactical reflections by the authors. Findings reveal the need to change the ICT Process Manual paradigm in school projects. Survey results show industry recognition of the importance of early ICT agreements in construction, while Project-Based Learning can facilitate developments in this regard, promoting sustainability and active student engagement. The study underscores the integration of early ICT agreements into education, enhancing the implementation of sustainability and digitalisation. |
