  • Abstract
    This article approaches, in a sensitive way, cartography and video games to show that spatial perception and visualization are subjective and are reinforced by some media. By materializing the mental map described by Patricia Marks Greenfield, our proposal allows the learner to outline his path and thus his three-dimensional map. Thus, this map helps the learner in the understanding of archaeological and architectural heritage, by facilitating the representation of information and by increasing its memorization.
