Current Trends of Construction Scheduling Teaching Methods in Higher Education
Construction scheduling is an essential technical skill that is required to understand construction management. To prepare for a career in construction management, universities are tasked with teaching the fundamentals and the concepts of how to effectively create and manage a schedule. To teach a technical skill, like scheduling, educators rely heavily on practical experience and face the difficult task of teaching students without substantial practical experience a concept that has historically relied on practical experience to support learning. This study conducts a comprehensive review of the academic literature from the past 20 years, exploring how educators have taught construction scheduling using various approaches. Specific scheduling trends emerged from the research which included the specific methods being used, reasoning for implementation, as well as the benefits reported which will all be further summarized and analyzed in this study. This paper will also highlight the numerous teaching methods utilized to enhance student learning including virtual simulations, game-based approaches, hands-on experiential learning, and virtual and in-person field trips. This information may benefit educational and industry programs interested in developing scheduling course material, based on the teaching methods, benefits, and reasons for implementation reported in this paper.
