Abstract

Space education has always been in constant evolution and new teaching systems are beginning to emerge in the face of technological advances. In the area of spatial representation in period of pandemic contingency, it has faced new challenges. Such is the case in the Tecnologico de Monterrey Campus Monterrey, in the course Formal Representation of Space. This article presents a new method for the student to build a shelter that was previously in physical form at real scale, now presents it with digital tools such as non-immersive virtual reality and augmented reality. The purpose of the use of these techniques is to learn how to visualize any object to represent its proposals in real space.
