Digital literacy to develop long-term implementation of digital twins

Abstract: This article explores how the challenges and opportunities are manifested in educating with and about the Digital Twin in the construction industry. The exploration is conducted with focus group interviews of students from two Danish educations seen from the theoretical perspective of challenging the students within their zone of proximal development while utilizing the digital twin as a semantic learning material and investigating their digital literacy regarding the digital twin. The findings indicate several opportunities to improve the learning sessions for the students to improve how they learn to understand and apply it to their contexts.
