Undergraduate-level BIM Curriculum Materials by
Knowledge Space Theory
Relying on the project team’s preliminary studies and literature reviews, our team has developed a four-week BIM-based digital twinning curriculum materials. The knowledge space theory from cognitive science has been adopted to organize these materials, reflecting a profession from simpler to more complex concepts, to help students learn in an efficient way. These curriculum materials have been integrated to the CyberTraining Platform.
