“…Spatial information is represented in a number of ways, ranging from traditional methods that include printed plans and physical models to modern methods that include digital printed plans and tridimensional models, which allow a greater level of detail and the ability to navigate and actualize potential changes instantaneously. These different visualization methods allow both students and professionals to work collaboratively and communicate their ideas about the space and the project more efficiently [51].…”

The final publication is available at link.springer.comA mixed-methods study evaluating the motivation and satisfaction of Architecture degree students using interactive visualization methods is presented in this paper. New technology implementations in the teaching field have been largely extended to all types of levels and educational frameworks. However, these innovations require approval validation and evaluation by the final users, the students. In this paper, the advantages and disadvantages of applying mixed evaluation technology are discussed in a case study of the use of interactive and collaborative tools for the visualization of 3D architectonical models. The main objective was to evaluate Architecture and Building Science students’ the motivation to use and satisfaction with this type of technology and to obtain adequate feedback that allows for the optimization of this type of experiment in future iterations.Postprint (author’s final draft

“…Considering the Virtual Prototyping enabling technologies, Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) are among the most promising ones. In fact, VR collaborative environments can support AEC professionals and the other stakeholders involved in a project in various activities, from the concept design to construction and maintenance phases [24]. AR tools allow visualising AEC projects in the real world, including both the construction site and remote working spaces where to discuss the design.…”

“…Moreover, multiple devices are supported, so the system can be used indifferently with a desktop computer or a mobile phone (further aspects will be discussed in Section 4). There are only a few examples of collaborative applications allowing AR visualisation, (e.g., see [20][21][22]) since mainly virtual environments have been used as communication platforms (e.g., see [23,24]). …”

Participated Planning of Large Water Infrastructures through Virtual Prototyping Technologies

Abstract:The design of large dams is a collaborative activity with relevant social and political implications. Planning such large infrastructures requires involving all the interested stakeholders, making shared decisions, tracing the design process. There are currently not many Virtual Prototyping tools to support this collaborative design process. In this paper, we propose a participated planning support system based on mobile and Augmented Reality technologies which allows different stakeholders to take part in the review of a large dam project through an application that automatically acquires information available online, allows all stakeholders to share information, and finally records everything for a subsequent analysis. The development of the application, as well as its use in two case studies and a user study, are described in the paper.

“…These advanced visualization methods allow both students and practitioners to work collaboratively and communicate their ideas. Most importantly, they facilitate more efficient management of the overall project space (Bouchlaghem, Shang, Whyte & Ganah, 2005;Leopold, Gorska & Sorby, 2001a). The use of certain collaborative ICTs permits the design, development and implementation of functional, sustainable and intelligent projects, which is also referred to as Intelligent DesignBased Learning − IDBL (Nawari, 2010).…”

In the new context of the Information Society and online learning, offering architectural education based on interactive and collaborative methodologies can generate professionals capable of combining technical and aesthetic aptitudes. Adopting these teaching methods in the design and building construction courses can assist in enhancing student motivation. The programming steps of project-based learning using technological tools for research-knowledge and representation provide an additional educational dimension. This approach enables students to gain a much greater awareness of their own learning styles and goals, while also allowing them to recognize a conceptual relationship to, and ultimately a holistic view of, architecture. In this paper, the design of the course called Architectural Construction (to be thought in the second year of the architecture undergraduate course) is presented by describing different learning units offered through information technologies implementation (IT). The article draws attention to the new training paradigm, based on the implementation of IT as intrinsic mechanisms for the academic and professional future of the architecture framework.Key words: Architecture, architectural construction learning, problem-based learning, representation, digital communication in construction. ResumenEn el nuevo contexto de la Sociedad de la Información y el aprendizaje en línea, la enseñanza de la arquitectura basada en metodologías interactivas y colaborativas tiene la capacidad de habilitar profesionales capaces de combinar tecnología y aptitudes proyectuales. La adopción de nuevos métodos de enseñanza en el diseño y construcción de edificios mejoran la motivación de los estudiantes. La programación estratégica del aprendizaje basado en problemas utilizando herramientas tecnológicas permite profundizar en el conocimiento para la representación y la investigación de proyectos arquitectónicos. Este enfoque permite a los estudiantes adquirir una mayor conciencia de su estilo de aprendizaje y los objetivos del curso, estableciendo nuevas relaciones conceptuales y una visión holística de la arquitectura. En este artículo, se presenta el diseño del curso Construcción Arquitectónica II donde se describen las diferentes unidades de aprendizaje ofrecidas a través de las Tecnologías de la Información (TI). El artículo llama la atención sobre el nuevo paradigma de capacitación, basado en la aplicación de mecanismos intrínsecos para el curso académico y el futuro profesional del marco arquitectónico.Palabras clave: Arquitectura, aprendizaje de construcción arquitectónica, aprendizaje basado en problemas, comunicación digital en construcción. 34
