“…Some researchers, like Carroll [13], recognize only two components: spatial visualization, understood as the ability to mentally handle complex forms, and mental rotation, defined as the mental speed to rotate simple forms and recognize them whilst in another position. The simplification of the components of spatial skills responds in general to the relationship that researchers seek with the possibility of training these skills in the field of engineering, and looks to generate a positive impact [14].…”

Rapid freehand drawings are of great importance in the early years of university studies of architecture, because both the physical characteristics of spaces and their sensory characteristics can be communicated through them. In order to draw architectural spaces, it is necessary to have the ability to visualize and manipulate them mentally, which leads us to the concept of spatial skills; but it also requires a development of spatial perception to express them in the drawings. The purpose of this research is to analyze the improvement of spatial skills through the full-scale sketching of architectural spaces in virtual immersive environments and to analyze spatial perception in reference to the capture of spatial sensations in virtual immersive environments. Spatial skills training was created based on the freehand drawing of architectural spaces using Head Mounted Displays (HMD) and registered the spatial sensations experienced also using HMD, but only in previously modeled realistic spaces. It was found that the training significantly improved orientation, rotation and visualization, and that the sensory journey and experimentation of architectural spaces realistically modeled in immersive virtual reality environments allows for the same sensations that the designer initially sought to convey.

“…In Latin America (and Peru specifically), the development and assessment of spatial skills has not been accorded the importance and recognition it deserves in either general or higher education. As such, universities are encountering two issues that stem from the absence of formal spatial awareness testing during the admissions process [20]: first, that incoming engineering students tend to possess poor spatial awareness skills; and second, that there are significant discrepancies in terms of students' initial capabilities [21]. What this means in practical terms is that students lacking spatial skills are at a disadvantage when compared to their peers.…”

“…Spatial skills can be developed with training. Some authors, however, mention that both general training and indirect training prove effective when content overlaps with the core subjects being taught in engineering graphics [21,25]. Other authors argue that targeted training is more effective, i.e., training lasting one to three weeks that is aimed at a specific spatial awareness test [19].…”

Spatial ability is made up of several sub-components, such as the ability to perform mental rotation and object-based transformations. Together with each individual’s attitudes and general skill sets, this specific ability plays an important role in technical professions such as engineering. The components of spatial ability can be enhanced using targeted training or educational programs. This study analyses the levels of spatial skills in first-year engineering students at two universities, one in Spain and one in Peru. The purpose of the study is to establish the extent of symmetry between these study groups in terms of their spatial skills. Initial comparisons indicate that the Peruvian students have a lower level of spatial skill prior to training than their Spanish cohorts. AR-based training delivering representational system content was used with engineering students at both universities to boost spatial abilities. The results obtained indicate the training was effective, as both experimental groups made significant gains in their level of spatial ability. No difference was detected in either experimental group for the variable gender. The comparison of spatial ability gains between both countries is similar, although there is significant difference in the spatial ability component spatial visualization. In this instance, gains in this component were higher amongst the student population in Peru.
