El BIM Desde el Pensamiento Reflexivo: Hacia la Formación Integral del Estudiante de Arquitectura.

Abstract

This proposal arises from the concern about the role that Higher Education deserves to assume given the importance of the Integral Formation of the Architecture student; it is observed that the discipline is going through difficulties and loss of value, effects framed by some experts within what is now recognized as a crisis in architecture. The graduate looks distant in the collaboration for the construction of culture and city, the little recognition of his profession is noted, also revealed in the absence of some qualities and skills required by the context of the 21st century. From the teaching and learning processes in Higher Education, a path to the question is glimpsed in the link, relationship, and coordination of technological innovation with educational innovation towards an ethical conception, of sensitivity and social responsibility. Thus, it is proposed that if the architect's education is directed to the development of Reflexive Thinking from its abstract nature that can be coordinated with its practical nature in the implementation of Building Information Modeling (BIM), it could support his Integral Training to contribute as a valuable actor to the society. Consequently, the question that directs the purpose of the research is derived: How can BIM be implemented from Reflective Thought to favor the Integral Formation of the Architecture student?
