Abstract
This article analyzes the effectiveness of using e-pedagogy and e-learning platforms in construction education. Construction-related disciplines are characterized by their laboratory- and project-based nature, which cannot be fully addressed by traditional teaching methods. The study highlights the advantages of teaching construction courses in a digital environment through project-based learning approaches and explores opportunities for applying innovative methods of student assessment. In particular, simulations, VR/AR technologies, e-portfolios, and competency-based assessment methods are considered as effective tools for enhancing students’ professional preparedness. The article justifies the necessity of integrating digital environments into construction education and offers scientific and practical recommendations for preparing future specialists in line with labor market demands.
