Summary
Studies have shown that applying gamification techniques in education allows students to exploit their creativity to imagine real-life situations within a virtual simulation, in addition to increasing learning motivation.
One of the new-age proponents of the gamification method is Oneistox - a US- and India-based learning platform for architects, designers, and engineers.
Oneistox has emerged as the first and only digital learning platform to employ gamification for teaching Building Information Modeling.
A Revolutionary Approach to Learning BIM. Since its founding in 2019, Oneistox has been developing a pedagogy involving gamification in order to make BIM knowledge more accessible to young professionals.
A live simulation project follows, in which learners pick their avatars and assume the roles of either a 'BIM Architect' or 'BIM Engineer'.
Finally, the aspect of interactive, cohort-based learning has proved to be excellent for building collaboration and coordination skills among learners.
It's exciting to consider how far their new pedagogy for Digital-Era learning will transform architecture education.
