Implementación de Blender en metodologías pedagógicas para la enseñanza de animación 3D y mejora de competencias en estudiantes de artes.

Abstract

Abstract: This thesis presents an alternative teaching method that reverses the traditional order of learning, applying it to the study of human anatomy through 3D animation with Blender. Rather than beginning with theoretical anatomy, the workshop starts with practical exercises that later connect back to theory. The study was carried out with art students, who demonstrated strong engagement and notable comprehension when using this practice-first approach. Results show that the method not only strengthens their understanding of body movement but also improves knowledge retention and encourages creativity. Among the challenges observed were the students initial lack of familiarity with the software and the need for additional guided practice. Even so, the research highlights the value of integrating digital tools in education and rethinking pedagogical strategies in the arts. Overall, this teaching experience supports the idea that inverting the learning process can lead to deeper and more meaningful learning in today s digital era.
