Clients want fast access to information, real details, and sometimes a sample of a tour. Design/methodology/approach-In this paper, first it is analysed in some interviews with owners of small and medium enterprises in RA. Then it is presented some pieces of evidence on the use of those technologies and applications. Finally, we point out some conclusions, some limitations and recommendations for future studies. Findings-The AR and VR technologies and new applications for personal computers (PCs) or mobile engines are rising sharply in the area of medicine. We also see some advances in architecture and the exhibition of properties, in particular in views of interiors, guide visits to apartments, or houses. These issues can easily be into the RE. Practical implications-Including Mobile Applications, Geo-referencing, AR or VR in RE business we can expect a better understanding of what consumers want, accurate details or proximity with a real word in a near future. Originality/value-We have few investigations both in RE and very new Technologies and Mobile Applications, mainly looking towards clients. Few articles are referring to those applications in RE and considering Portugal studies are rare. This kind of research should be more frequent and compared, as possible, with other countries and other situations.

Design/methodology/approach-Adding collected documentation on curriculum, laws and other related articles; the paper also includes statistical information based on collected data from questionnaires carried out in some main Lisbon parishes. The students and teachers universe in Portugal are about 110,420 people for regular public middle and high schools. In total, 1,120 questionnaires were collected and treated as samples. Findings-According to the questionnaires, technologies are quite accepted in schools. Use and quantity of resources restrain learning evolution with recent technologies. Combining theoretical knowledge and on-field perceptions, analysis and evaluation leads to the conclusion that there are some evident discrepancies when ICT is analyzed across the curriculum, with quantities and use of ICT resources. Web-based technologies seem to be insufficient inside schools and their use is low. Practical implications-Including and adapting ICT with programs and curriculum are goals to reach in the years to come. Better understanding of ICT equipment and use in Portuguese public schools for middle and high levels. Originality/value-There are only few or rare questionnaires related to ICT in Portugal and this kind of research should be more frequent and comparing with other countries and situations. Recently, some studies were carried out on e-learning subjects. This paper can help educational entities better understand perceptions, gaps and directions to go in the future.

We focus on tools, communication based on communities of practice (CoPs) and initiatives, but also trying to storage, access and exploit data, information and knowledge in a better way. Hoping identifying the pros and cons of each model or methodology and suggest new approaches, this study tries to make some possible conclusion or point some ideas for further studies.

nuevos modelos, que permitirán no sólo mejorar el aprendizaje por parte de los alumnos, sino la posterior conexión con la vida laboral, en la que su aplicación tendrá eficacia.
Entre las soluciones futuras se encuentran los nuevos modelos que incluyen las TIC, modelos de enseñanza y aprendizaje basados en prácticas, experimentaciones colaborativas entre todos los agentes implicados del entorno educativo y comunidad próxima, tales como alumnos, profesores, agregados familiares y empresas. Un estudio sobre la sociología, psicología de la educación así como las actuales y futuras herramientas, la formación de profesores, o metodologías y currículos más adaptados, permiten pensar a construir un nuevo modelo de
enseñanza-aprendizaje (E-A). Por otro lado, las encuestas realizadas a los alumnos y profesores en la Gran Lisboa, en escuelas de enseñanza básica y secundaria regular, van a
permitir extraer conclusiones sobre estos temas. Esta tesis analiza la evolución de la implantación de Tecnologías de Información y Comunicación (TIC) en las escuelas y estudia varias
herramientas tecnológicas. Presenta también un modelo teórico de enseñanza virtual y presencial - mixta, que puede ser utilizado como punto de partida para la introducción de la clase virtual o clase mixta en la Educación Secundaria y Básica Portuguesa."
