This article reviews three learning models and information technologies that can be used to support the effective application of these learning models in higher education construction engineering. The effectiveness of an information technology is analyzed through the appropriateness of the technology in supporting a particular learning model. The mapping of information technologies to learning models identifies technologies in which construction engineering schools should invest to improve their educational environment and quality. Further research issues are also discussed. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Comput Appl Eng Educ 6: 15–21, 1998
