2019, our university Tecnológico de Monterrey, rolled out its new educationalmodel called Tec21 across all programs, including engineering. In this model, the semesterperiods were divided into three periods of 5 weeks each, where subjects from the previouscurriculum, which lasted 18 weeks, were condensed into a 5-week teaching period. Thisapproach was based on entirely focusing students on a thematic area (Fig.1).In the Tec21 curriculum plans [1-5], each thematic block is structured with several moduleson related themes and a challenge (linked project), which must be addressed by developingskills derived from the deployment of the modules. All challenges are linked to real-worldenvironmental problems through Educational Partners (companies

It proceeds todescribe TU Dublin’s stepped and scaffolded approach for supporting student researchers, andthen propose a plan for a study that will systematically map, critically analyze, andsystematically review the results of BIM-related research generated at TU Dublin since 2020.The paper concludes with implications for future research.Strategies for National Implementation of BIMBIM signifies a digital representation of the physical and functional characteristics of a building– using both graphic and textual data – to help plan, design, construct, and manage buildings

This technology can assist designers and clients by providing enhanced visualization and understanding of the space, allowing them to make more informed decisions. VR can also be used for visualization enabling architects to create realistic renderings and animations for the design presentation. Lastly, VR can be used in construction, warranting the builders to plan and visualize the construction process

visual study tools ratherthan traditional reading-writing methods.It is important to consider that through the application of different teaching methods theknowledge can be further approached. In architecture, it is necessary to make relationsbetween theoretical aspects and concepts with much more practical and technicalapplications. Thus, the requirement of having a broad comprehension of topics and therelations between them is fundamental. Through mind maps, graphic relations can be madebetween the several topics covered on a course. Visual tools can help “clarify the relationshipbetween material objects and concepts to understand” [3]. The critical challenges faced byan ArPM (Architect Project Manager) are ‘poor planning,’ ‘unfamiliar

According to [10], astructured curriculum planning framework is essential to effectively integrating BIM and SDeducation. By incorporating BIM tools into the curriculum, students can gain practicalexperience using BIM for SD analysis, energy modeling, and lifecycle assessments. This hands-on approach allows students to develop critical thinking skills and apply SD principles usingBIM technology.

This isencouraging to the professor, and work has already begun with program administration toschedule the course in the future to minimize conflicts with other courses taken by students inour programs.
