Abstract

Dünya genelinde inşaat sektöründe artan talep üzerine üniversitelerin BIM eğitimine olan ilgisi artmış ve müfredat geliştirme çalışmaları hız kazanmıştır. Önceki çalışmalar incelendiğinde, yeni bir BIM dersi müfredatı oluşturulurken bazı zorluklar olduğu görülmüştür. Özellikle dersin uygulama kısmının yürütülmesine dair eğitmenin yetkinliği ve ödev içeriklerinin oluşturulması ana problemi oluşturmaktadır. Örnek çalışmaların geliştirilmesi ile dersin eğitmeninin BIM yetkinliğinin sağlanması ve dersin uygulama kısmında kullanılabilecek ders materyallerinin elde edilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Bu çalışmada, bir BIM müfredatının geliştirilmesi için ders içeriğinin nasıl tasarlandığı örnek çalışmalar üzerinden açıklanmaktadır. Farklı bina programlarından oluşan örnek çalışmalar BIM olgunluk seviyesi açısından değerlendirilmekte ve karşılaştırılmaktadır. Üretilen ders materyalleri, bir dönemlik bir yüksek lisans dersinde her yıl tekrar ederek uygulamaya geçirilmiş ve öğrenci anketi ile test edilmektedir. BIM' in karmaşık yapısı, üretilen model tabanlı öğrenme ortamı üzerinden anlatılmaya çalışılmıştır. Öğrenci anketi ile elde edilen bulgular üzerinden öğrenme ortamına ilişkin değerlendirme yapılarak, geleceğe yönelik projeksiyon ortaya konmaya çalışılmaktadır.

Creating a Model-Based Learning Environment in BIM Education through Case Studies

Abstract

As demand in the construction industry continues to rise globally, universities have shown an increased interest in Building Information Modeling (BIM) education, leading to accelerated curriculum development studies. Previous research has identified several challenges associated with creating new BIM course curricula. Notably, the instructor's competence in delivering the practical components of the course and developing assignment content are significant issues. The development of case studies aims to enhance the BIM proficiency of course instructors and to generate course materials suitable for practical application. This paper outlines the design of course content for BIM curriculum development through the use of case studies. Case studies from various building programs are evaluated and compared based on their BIM maturity levels. The resulting course materials are implemented in a graduate course offered each year and assessed through student surveys. The intricate nature of BIM is explained within a model-based learning environment. By analyzing the learning environment using data gathered from student surveys, this study aims to provide insights for future improvements.
