Metaverse+CAD+&+BIM+Design

=== In the text wrote by Jerry Laiserin says that the atelier is a very important place for architects because on it the students exchange ideas and is part of the pedagogic method for this career. The language learned in this experience generates the profession’s cultural framework. Now with the technology, communication advances and the new opportunities to exchange pictures and images is possible live this experience with virtual reality. ===

=== The e-teliers are like ateliers but in a virtual reality, the advantages of this tool are that the students can work on designs together without being in the same place, at the same time, the competition and collaboration are better. ===

With technology new tools are available to make the e-telier experience complete and the globalized world will facilitate learning for students of architecture and urban planning.
Descriptive Paragraph **
 * In this image we can see a woman resting in a hammock below a palm tree. She is wearing a red blouse, blue pants and sandals. Behind her there is a two-storey house with a porch which roof is supported by white tall columns. The house facade, which is made of bricks and is inside the porch, has a double height-door with two windows on each side. Inside the porch, in front of entrance there are a table covered with a blue tablecloth and some chairs. The ground outside the house is partially covered by grass. There are also some bushes. This scene gives a relaxing impression and seems to be viewed from the perspective of a perso **** n.

 * Comparison and Contrast Paragraph **
 * CAD and BIM **
 * Computer-aided design (CAD) is computer technology used for drawing and designing objects in two and three dimensions. On the other hand the Building Information Modeling ( BIM) is a data base of a building which includes building geometry, spatial relationships, geographic information, and quantities and properties of building compon **** ents. Both technologies can be used in architectural design, but CAD is focused on drawing problem while BIM is a model of the building which includes all the relevant information, including the drawings. Unlike BIM, CAD can also be used for other kinds of design, like mechanical pieces or computer animation. **
 * In contrast to CAD, BIM relates only to buildings, but it can be used not only in design but also in the construction and maintenance of the building. In architectural design both technologies are complementary. **

==** This is a new concept for me, the idea of a vi **** rtual world is exciting and interesting especially because it is a great tool for architects and urban planners. I think that the possibility to interact with other people is an opportunity to exchange ideas and analyze designs. When the students can keep in touch with other students and talk about their own work through an e-telier, improvement the learning process. **==
