Using Simulation, Collaboration, and 3D Visualization for Design Learning: A Case Study in Domotics

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNCS,volume 3190))

Abstract

Computer-assisted educational environments are an excellent complement to the learning process. However, when domains are complex, the expected learning support objectives may not be achieved. We are interested in the exploration, study and application of new interactive technologies suitable for their use in the classroom. We propose the use of Computer Supported Collaborative Learning combined with Simulation and 3D representation for assisting in learning processes. We believe in the potential of this synergy to support learning in a case study: the teaching of Domotics, i.e., the design of automated control facilities in buildings and housings.
