“…Students collaborated in teams to work on some tasks needed to accomplish predefined sustainable goals for a real building project. Students' critical thinking and problem-solving skills are confirmed to be effectively influenced by project-based learning [29]. Zhang et al [30] proposed a BIM project execution plan (BIMPEP) process framework for integrating project-based learning and real-world project information.…”

The purpose of this paper was to present a method for developing a project-based online course for building information modeling (BIM) learning. As the development of BIM has gradually increased its influence on the architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) industries, countries around the world have begun to focus on BIM education and import it into university courses. However, there have been many studies pointing out several problems with the BIM education curriculum. For example, BIM education should not be limited to modeling work, and students do not exactly know the entire BIM workflow. Therefore, this research proposed a project-based online course development method for solving BIM educational issues. The proposed method contains a course development process and guidelines for designing the course. As an example implementation, a five-week Autodesk Revit learning curriculum was developed. Such a curriculum was then utilized in a 32 student class for testing its effectiveness. The results showed that students could understand the BIM process more effectively through the designed project-based course. Additionally, with online video tutorials, students are free to allocate their study time based on their personal needs and adjust their learning progress for better understanding of the course contents.

“…There is relatively rare any collaboration between school levels. Some articles are about the connection of courses between universities or different topics, such as BIM and sustainability [10,11]. The objective in OuluZone+ project (started in March 2017 and ended in December 2017), which is presented in this article, was to connect the special open BIM and automation expertise of three different educational level institutions and to utilise their resources, and to be a practical learning experience for students, as well as for teachers, too.…”

This paper presents the results of the practical learning experience when combine three different school level students to learn open infrastructure building information modelling (infra BIM) and automation during OuluZone workshop week. Students started to build Speedway track in OuluZone test centre with one-week resources with the help of experts from industry and teachers. In addition, for students, ten different tricks were designed to present the tasks of the responsible person on the construction site. The idea of tricks was to teach students how these experts are using open infra BIM construction automation in their work. Infrakit, which is open infra BIM cloud service, was used to connect automation systems together. Based on the one-week workshop experience including questionnaire study answers and the results of pretest and exam for students, it can be concluded that this type of practical learning is an effective way to teach open infra BIM based automation to students.

is a Professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the Tecnológico de Monterrey campus Puebla and a Young Energy Professional (YEP) ascribed to the Energy Council of Canada (ECC). Benjamin's research is focused in the development and implementation of emergent technologies (BIM, CIM, IoT, Big Data, Machine learning, LCA, 3D scan to BIM) for increasing the performance of construction building projects in terms of sustainability and Circular Economy. Benjamin has done recent contributions on international journals for the valuation and monetization of the environmental impacts of the residual life of building stock in North America. His contributions add a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) perspective to the decision-making methodology involved in adaptive reuse of buildings, in order to contribute to sustainability and climate change through mitigation of CO2 emissions.Benjamin is a Civil Engineer with a doctorate in Civil Engineering from the University of Waterloo in Ontario, Canada. He is originally from the city of Puebla in Mexico. Before initiating his doctoral studies, he worked as infrastructure construction supervisor and environmental inspector of the State of Puebla. Puebla is the fourth largest state in Mexico with 6.1 million inhabitants. Some of his duties were verifying the fulfillment of the applicable laws inside of the construction and environmental jurisdiction for new and existing buildings. Benjamin has been active in the promotion and dissemination of his research work in important forums, through participating in international research academic experiences at Chalmers University in Sweden and ETH Zürich in Switzerland. Also, he has presented his original work in international conferences (ISARC, CIB WBC, CSCE, ASCE, NHICE), and he has collaborated in projects with international organizations such as the Energy Council of Canada (ECC), the Federation of Canadian Municipalities (FCM), and the United Nations Climate Change Conference COP23. Prof. Romeo Ballinas-Gonzalez, Tecnologico de Monterrey (ITESM) Civil Engineer and Master in Project Management from Tecnológico de Monterrey. He did doctoral studies at the Polytechnic University of Catalonia. He is currently a full-time professor at the Tecnológico de Monterrey Campus Puebla since 2013. Founding Partner of the DROEN Ingeniería design firm. He teaches courses in hydrology, hydraulic works, water distribution networks and drainage, sustainable use of water and geomatics at the Tec Campus Puebla.
