“…In summary, there is a gender difference that affects the use of VR to understand space, which is a difference that has been previously identified in other studies at the general level [137,138]. In this sense, all the STEM/STEAM initiatives of the last decades advance an improvement of the results as the more technical vocations among females gain more space and the number of teachers and professionals becomes equal in terms of gender and even becomes renewed at the age level [139][140][141][142]. The differential behavior by gender and age of such professionals is evident, with a tendency to be more motivated to be trained and to include specific systems in the academic field by young female professionals.…”

The creation and usage of serious games on virtual reality (VR) and/or interactive platforms for the teaching of architecture, construction, urban planning, and other derived areas, such as security and risk prevention, require design processes, studies, and research that lead to further consolidation expansion. In that sense, this paper presents two main aims developed: the improvement of a virtual navigation system through the results of previous user studies and mixed research (quantitative and qualitative) improved based on the user perception for educational and professional uses. The VR system used is based on Unreal Engine programming of the HTC Vive sensor. This study is related to the GAME4City 3.0 and a broader project focused on gamified visualization and its educational uses in architectural and urban projects. The results reflect great interest, good usability, and high motivation for further usage for all types of users. However, an apparent resistance to deepen its use continues to be perceived in academia. Based on the research results, weak points of educational gamified systems have been identified, and the main differences and needs in user profiles’ function. With these data, progress regarding implementing this kind of system at the teaching and professional levels must be pursued.

“…as so the studies agreed with that orientation towards the education process as it plays a vital role in developing the industry performance. [17,[19][20][21][22] so, it was obvious to study the architects, engineers' interests, and study what the AEC have expected them to produce. So, by studding the literature it was found that most of fresh graduates' purpose of learning computer application is improving their work field and qualifications rather than being interested in new trends.…”

“…So, by studding the literature it was found that most of fresh graduates' purpose of learning computer application is improving their work field and qualifications rather than being interested in new trends. [19] farther more, many researches (like the global one) , emphasized the importance of collaborating the world of construction industry with the academic one and working together to establish a partnership to transfer knowledge through research, education, and consulting teams.

Traditional buildings have a cultural philosophy and characterize the culture of an area. The occurrence of environmental changes, population growth, and the growth of modern buildings impact traditional buildings. Therefore, preserving those traditional buildings is needed to avoid extinction and make as cultural assets. The research aims to develop an application to help architects quantitatively measure the content of traditional architectural styles in their designs. This study uses the Artificial Intelligence (AI) method to identify buildings' similarities, acquiring traditional building data in roofs and ornaments images as a dataset totaling 650 images of roofs and 7,180 ornaments. Data processing was carried out by making architectural models, training, testing accuracy, and creating application interfaces. The algorithm used to identify similarities between building types was the Convolutional Naural Network (CNN) and the Support Vector Machine (SVM). The results of the accuracy-test using the Confusion matrix method reached an accuracy value of 99.5% in identifying building similarities and 85% in classifying building types.
