Popis: International audience; This paper proposes an educational approach for learning architecture based on prototype digital reality experiences tailored for students' needs. We use a combination of tools and methods from different disciplines, such architecturology and game design. The hypothesis is tested on architecture students from the course 'Architectural Design 9: Urban Design' at the National Technical University of Athens, fall semester, 2018-2019.We propose using the demo-application 'Behavior Interactive Interface' (BII) for Unity 3D with preset behaviors of virtual actors, as a demo-tool in order to for evaluate the effectiveness of urban design proposals in serving self-improvement of the architectural designing skills of students. The integration of such a method facilitates cognitive interactions through real-time immersive visualization during the process of learning. We expect to provide students all the necessary new assets of reality's experimentation for their future professional life in a compact theoretical and practical educational package.
