Understand and use tools to monitor the progress of construction projects in terms of both schedule and budget.Active Learning Techniques Used in the CourseA previous offering of the course involved techniques such as informal groups, case studies,guest lectures, and peer review. Laboratory sessions were an integral part of the course, and theyinvolved working through practice problems and creating schedules in Microsoft Project. Thestudents followed step-by-step in completing the exercises and they were given take-homeassignments. In-class exercises such as creating network diagrams and line of balance scheduleswere completed. The students work in groups on a real project to develop a constructionschedule. Students

Engineering Education, 2021 Virtual lab modules for undergraduate courses related to building energy systemsAbstractBackground: In engineering education, hands-on laboratory experience is essential to enhancingstudents’ practical skills such as conceptual understanding and problem solving skills. However,many students are not able to participate in practical activities (e.g., laboratory experiments) dueto inaccessible or unavailable “brick and mortar” laboratories, especially when most universitieshave currently adopted online instruction while students are sheltered at home due to the ongoingCOVID-19 pandemic. Purpose: This paper presents a library of virtual laboratory modulesexpanded and enriched from our

VR was used to leverage a seamless virtual application thuscomplementing theories with unlimited interactive pedagogies, which kept learners engaged,interested and ultimately fosters retention particularly in haptic courses. Specifically, this studyintegrates the VR technology into an Environmental Science Laboratory to support teaching,enhance students’ understanding, and increase retention as well as triggering an interactiveeducational environment. This paper focuses on the method of advancing haptic learning withVR through introducing and analyzing five modules taught in a building sciences laboratorycourse in addition to sharing limitations and some lessons learned of

Previously, there was minimal BIM software or skills taught within the curriculum.After two years of course development and increased student interest, the BIM course became arequired course in 2015. The class meets four hours per week, for a ten-week quarter and istaught in a computer laboratory. This class is listed as an Activity, rather than a Lecture or aLaboratory. It is the goal of this course to introduce students to a number of BIM softwaresystems and tools used within the industry. The class covers eleven software systems in tenweeks. The software systems currently covered include

engineering, there were concerns about how social distancing, especially in laboratory exercises,would affect accreditation. The engineering and technology accrediting board, ABET, issued informationrelatively early about changes due to COVID-19. ABET determined short-term changes due to COVIDwould not need to be reported (ABET, 2020). In addition to concerns about having in-person classes andlab exercises, another concern expressed was how to communicate online in ways that are as effectiveas in person. Universities were prompted to provide additional faculty support for teaching and someeven identified some “hacks” that could be used for a graphical interface (University of Nevada Reno,2020). Other lessons learned include better ways to grade

from multiple disciplines work in parallel, it can be difficult to overcome languagebarriers, inherent biases, and even coming up with a common problem statement [10] due todisagreements.The course employed instruction delivery approaches found in professional programs’ studio andlab courses where theory and technology intersect. In technology and engineering curriculumintegration of theory and technology happens in laboratory courses and in the arts and design it isin studios. In addition, professional programs often use a project-based, learner-centeredapproach. The common element in these integrative courses is the introduction of a team-basedproject with a set of learning objectives and outcomes focusing on ethical professional
