Project #:
CTIPS-045

Description

In this project we will interact with technology leaders in construction companies to understand construction industry tasks and roles AI is currently supporting or expected to support in the near future. With this insight we will develop a new learning module for a relevant construction course. This learning module will accomplish two key goals, 1) The module will introduce transportation related content into construction courses and 2) The module will demonstrate how traditional curricula can be updated and transformed to meet the changes demanded by AI. The learning module will be shared with other construction and engineering educators by placing the module in a teaching repository and by presenting the work at education focused conferences such as Associated Schools of Construction (ASC) or American Society for Engineering Education (ASEE).
