“…Since every design problem is unique, the framework for the evaluation of the design alternatives has to be flexible enough in terms of choosing the specific fitness criteria (both intrinsic and extrinsic), examining the ramifications of various sets of fitness criteria, and selecting the more relevant ones for each situation. [17] Current engagement by digital technology and parametric design and BIM allows for design exploration mainly through continuous differentiation. [18] Architectural projects that have been designed using these methods argue for the possibility of using constraints to examine the entire scope of the design implementations.…”

This research focuses on the evolving nature and concepts of digitalcomputational designs and attempts to elucidate the impacts on the architectural design process.It intends to take into account a holistic approach to the integrated design process and some of the key potentialities that emerge from its application in the discipline with the rise of digital design tools in architecture. As a result, the purpose of this research is to examine this new paradigm and provide a conceptual framework based on its models, levels, and systems that aid in the integrated architectural design process.This framework may help architects realize the potential of digital tools by using and thinking of parameterization as a general procedure from the initial stage of form-finding to the final design. Therefore, an awareness of both the potentials and limitations of digital paradigms is imperative in the effective use of these models and in understanding how they will continue to change the architectural profession.It concludes by highlighting the need to sensitize and raise the awareness of professionals and students on the benefits and potentials of the Integrated Design Process enabled by computation.

“…The challenge that teachers face is to find ways to motivate students to participate in new teaching strategies that help them achieve their goals and develop successful projects [12] . Self-assessment is one of those strategies to enhance the students' evaluation skills and prepare them for professional challenges.Currently, standards-based education considers student self-assessment as a tool to improve student motivation, engagement, and learning [13] .…”

Educational methods of the architecture programs require regular review and continued development to be consistent with the changing standards of the architectural engineering sciences. Although evaluation has an essential role in the education process to make judgments about the quality of the students and their products, few studies have been interested in developing an evaluation method to evaluate the architectural design. Previous studies confirmed the need to develop standards-based evaluation models to evaluate the students' architectural designs in all design stages, as well as an objective weighting method to quantify the weight of each evaluation criterion compared to other evaluation criteria. In this context, this research proposes a criteriabased evaluation model that is oriented to evaluate the students' products of working drawings in the construction documents phase. This research concluded that using a criteria-based evaluation model can achieve a good, accurate, and fair evaluation of the working drawings and can decrease the deviation among multi-evaluators as well as leading to improve the quality of students' working drawings.

“…BIM learning supports the sustainable application of BIM technology across the stages of design, procurement, manufacturing, construction, operation, and maintenance [3]. Although scholars have made great progress in BIM research, with BIM technology now even widely used in Financial Investment Projects [4], nevertheless, there remains a disconnection between theoretical education and engineering practice in BIM learning [5].…”

“…Nationally, across China, graduation design is a compulsory course of AEC-related education, which is the main link between theoretical education and engineering practice. It is formulated to help students smoothly transition from school education to professional practice after graduation [5]. BIM technology is sits at the core of the future sustainable development of the AEC industry.…”

With the popularization and rise in BIM technology usage, BIM education for undergraduate students in architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) related disciplines has emerged as a priority. This study assesses the BIM learning outcomes of students participating in the National BIM Graduation Design Innovation Competition of Colleges and Universities. In total, 2777 valid questionnaire responses were obtained for this study. The Cronbach’s alpha coefficient method and principal component factor analysis method were used to verify the reliability of the data set (Cronbach’s alpha = 0.962, KMO = 0.965). The t-test (ANOVA) was used to verify that gender, school type, major, grade, study duration and use BIM related software, as well as other demographic attributes, displayed significant inter-group differences. Seven common factors affecting BIM learning performance were obtained by exploratory factor analysis: (1) ability of the instructor, (2) school (college) atmosphere, (3) teamwork, (4) individual ability, (5) understanding of BIM industry applications, (6) social environment incentives, and (7) achievement demand. Finally, the results of an ordered logistic regression revealed that the demographic attributes of participants, the comprehensive ability of the instructor, teamwork, individual ability, and achievement demand significantly affects BIM learning performance. Based on these findings, this paper puts forward suggestions for improving BIM learning performance and provides theoretical support for BIM education and learning in AEC related undergraduate majors.
