GUTIERREZ-RODRIGUEZ, Hernando. The Importance of Mobile Applications for Learning About Bioclimatic Architecture in Academia. Rev. Arquit. (Bogotá) [online]. 2024, vol.26, n.2, pp.53-73.  Epub Sep 04, 2024. ISSN 1657-0308.  https://doi.org/10.14718/revarq.2024.26.3784.

The research focused on developing a mobile application to understand and synthesize relevant bioclimatic strategies for architectural composition in academia, targeting university students as the primary audience. A mixed methodology was used, beginning with a qualitative approach to identify pertinent topics, followed by a quantitative approach to determine how technologies are used in academia. The choice of a mobile application was based on the need to gradually introduce students to bioclimatic topics, avoiding complexity and excessive volume of suggested topics. Essential themes such as air, sun and water were selected for inclusion in the application, aiming to align them with the social nature of the students and allow for future updates and adaptation. In summary, the goal was to develop a flexible and adaptable mobile application that enables university students to acquire knowledge about bioclimatic topics and use it both inside and outside the classroom throughout their careers.
