Abstract

This article studies the support of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) for the teaching of Architecture and Urbanism projects. Students were expected to achieve faster decision making by generating design hypotheses and testing them, what hypothetically would result in more creative and detailed design solutions. Observation and evaluation of the generated products showed that the potential of these tools depends on the adjustment of learning time of GIS. Mostly of the resulting projects presented derived from an unique hypotheses. Future research will study creativity in the generation of design hypotheses with the support of those instruments, considering hypothesizing several design solutions for problems in the teaching proposal.
