ABSTRACT

With the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) technology and the swift rise of the intelligent construction industry, the architecture and construction sector is undergoing unprecedented transformation. In this context, cultivating high-quality intelligent construction professionals who can meet the demands of the new era has become a critical issue in higher education reform. Guided by the Outcome-Based Education (OBE) concept and empowered by AI technology, this paper proposes a closed-loop reform model that treats OBE as the framework and AI as the tool. It elaborates on the integrative logic of OBE and AI empowerment, and explores innovative pathways for teaching reform in intelligent construction education. These include restructuring the curriculum system, innovating teaching methods, enhancing practical training, and reforming evaluation mechanisms, thereby providing theoretical support and practical guidance for the pedagogical reform of intelligent construction programs.
