Animação como ferramenta de apoio a aprendizagem dentro e fora da sala de aula

Abstract

This present work aims to explore the use of animations as a supporting tool in the teaching of descriptive geometry. The process of selecting resources in lesson planning is crucial to provide efficient and viable means for students. Animations are considered an ideal tool to facilitate the visualization of content, providing a motivating experience in teaching and learning. The research proposes the study and production of an animated model that can serve as a guide for materials that function as support tools for classes, offering support to teachers and providing an alternative means of visualizing the content for students. The study focuses on the discipline of descriptive geometry in the Digital Design course, identifying the feasibility of using animations based on the analysis of the syllabus and interaction with students during the academic period. The work follows a methodology in five stages. Initially, a theoretical framework is constructed based on supporting literature and related cases. Then, an observational study is conducted to understand the demands and define the moments when animations will be used as supporting tools. Subsequently, the animations are produced following a specific methodology with the aid of appropriate tools. The present work resulted in the conception of a model that can be used as a basis for the creation of future animations aimed at assisting in the educational process, specifically in the teaching of descriptive geometry. This model was developed based on the identification of four main requirements, grouped during the research period: accessibility, guidance, clarity, and stimulation.
