challenges can be addressed by adequately educating future professionals about AI. At aminimum, this will help alleviate the talent shortage, but beyond addressing this issue, havingsome knowledge of concepts used in AI will help its users better comprehend its proposedsolutions and be better aware of security risks.Research MethodThis study was designed to include two main components: (a) a literature review of AI-relatedpractices in construction education and management and (b) a nation-wide survey that targetedconstruction management faculty and professional organizations around the country and somestudents majoring in construction management. The literature review focused on identifying AI-related applications in the construction industry

We did not see any relationship between students’ performance ontests and the use of simulation. Appendix B shows the detailed results.5.2 Results of End-of-Semester Student SurveyStudents in the treatment and control groups were asked questions about their perceptions of thesimulations. Students in the control group were asked if they were aware of the simulations, andif ‘No’ was selected, they were directed to the end of the survey. Thus, data was collected fromthose in the control group who had some awareness of InSiDE. 16 students from the
