Abstract:The design competition is an important part of the innovation of the education system, and it is one of the important means to cultivate students’ innovative and practical abilities. As the 12th five-year development planning of construction industry includes the development and application of BIM, more and more BIM talents with high quality are needed. To put the practice ability and innovation ability training throughout the modern university education, we summarized our teaching experience, and put forward how to construct and implement the BIM teaching workshop. The construction of the BIM teaching workshop can unify students’ design skills and design effects, improve a relatively closed teaching system with the introduction of an interaction mechanism with an auxiliary “external thinking”, change the traditional teaching method with the introduction of an interaction mechanism with an auxiliary “external incentive”, and give full play to students’ initiative and enthusiasm by using the competition project, which can finally improve and promote the BIM teaching.
