This paper begins with a discussion about the current situation of the architectural design teaching and learning. In this discussion the following points are noted: the current technological context and its influence when it comes to teaching skills profile of the students and the ways in which they learn and take possession of knowledge; the need for integration of knowledge of environmental comfort to the learning of architectural design and the potential use of mobile devices (tablets, smartphones and laptops) for this purpose. In view of these aspects, we seek to develop a didactic proposal to assist students in the development of architectural projects of low complexity, incorporating the knowledge of acoustic comfort, bright and thermal, in all stages of the design process. To compose the didactic proposal is developed a virtual learning object in a blog format. It is proposed that the students make the blog content available as a template for the subsequent ownership. The paper presents, finally, a suggestion for the future deployment of didactic proposal where content can be presented in a more dynamic and flexible. It is expected that this dissertation contributes to the development of other work on the topic, and help students and teachers in the development of architectural projects.
