Abstract

The combination of digital tools and Building Information Modeling (BIM) is an innovative force in the field of architecture and construction management studies. These technologies offer the students a more practical and engaging learning experience, which is more reflective of the practices in the industry. Through the integration of BIM and other electronic applications, educational programs may become more student-centered, more effective, and help students to be more prepared to work on complicated and real-life construction projects. The paper will discuss how BIM can be used to improve learning experiences, the difficulties of implementing these technologies in learning institutions, and the advantages and constraints of integrating BIM in learning programs. The t-test was used to determine the effect of BIM on student performance in terms of engagement, academic achievements, and the rate of completion of the project prior to the implementation of BIM. These improvements included the following: the engagement of students improved by 20 %, the GPA went up by 0.34, and the rate of project completion increased by 15 %after the implementation of BIM, with p-values of 0.0000, 0.0003, and 0.0002, respectively. These results support the affirmative effects of BIM on student achievement. The paper ends by providing practical recommendations on what can be done to improve BIM integration in educational institutions, which include faculty training programs, developing flexible programs, and ensuring that there is an ongoing feedback system to identify challenges and maximize the learning process.
