The advent of digital creativity and artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly changing<br />

the way we think, design and construct architecture. This transformative methodology,<br />

must also inevitably lead to a continued evolution in architectural pedagogy.<br />

Whilst these new technologies, computational tools and data-driven processes<br />

suggest new possibilities for creativity and innovation, there is an inherent perception<br />

they may also pose a threat to the development of the traditional design<br />

skills within architectural education. This paper seeks to explore the impacts of<br />

new ways of design and the importance of retaining creative critical thinking<br />

processes in design education.<br />

Keywords: Architectural pedagogy, design thinking, design methodology, digital<br />
