• MetodologiaMethodology

  The syllabus is conveyed through a blend of expository and active pedagogical strategies. Classes commence with audiovisual presentations and PowerPoint slides, designed to introduce new concepts, tools, and techniques, ranging from basic navigation in a 3D environment to more complex aspects such as texturing and rendering. Each theoretical topic is followed by the completion of practical exercises and small projects. The structuring of these exercises is devised in such a way that students apply the acquired knowledge immediately. Students are encouraged to explore and experiment, thereby solidifying their practical understanding of the topics discussed and gaining essential skills for their professional development. Continuous monitoring of student performance allows for the provision of individual guidance and constructive feedback throughout the semester. Additional support is offered through the Moodle platform.
