Adaptive e-learning model for enhancing construction management education

Construction management educators face numerous challenges in designing and delivering courses characterised by high levels of student engagement, interactions, motivation, flexibility and feedback. As a pedagogical strategy for overcoming the challenges, an adaptive eLearning model that emphasises a constructivist approach to learning, was developed, implemented and tested in a construction management degree program through action research. Student feedback advocated that the novel approach enhanced student learning by raising engagement, motivation, interaction, flexibility and real-time feedback. Furthermore, students desired the availability of the new learning method in other courses of the degree program too.
