Nowadays architectural design basic courses are constrained by site constraints and traditional teaching models, there are shortcomings of lack of engineering practice ability training, repetitive teaching, and students′difficulty in understanding three-dimensional space. Aim to these shortcomings, “Construction of the Chinese Southern Pavilion Virtual Simulation Experiment” of Zhejiang A F University developed “virtual construction” module for engineering practice ability training, “basic cognition” module for repetitive teaching problem and “case learning” module for three-dimensional spatial cognition understanding problem, and It has explored the reform of teaching methods suitable for it. Teaching practices have shown that virtual simulation experiments can largely compensate for the shortcomings of traditional teaching models. With the continuous development and maturity of high-tech information technology, virtual simulation experiments will play an increasingly important role in teaching activities effect.
