Abstract

Many studies have shown that students learn best when a variety of teaching techniques are used, and that some students respond best to certain methods. Based on this, the use of computers in classroom is more and more stimulated and many applications of computational techniques are being developed as educational tools, with the aim of providing a vast field of learning experiences for the students. One of the most difficult pedagogical problems in architectural education is the interface between structural and architectural design issues. This paper presents an Augmented Reality application implemented as a teaching tool in the Faculty of Architecture and Urbanism at Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ), to introduce the novice students to the study of structural systems, in a pleasant manner suitable for the architecture student profile.
