Innovation in the simultaneous application of new methodologies arises from the need to adapt to the different types of learning that students may have. This research evaluates the simultaneous application of multiple methodologies in the implementation of CAD practices. Specifically, it compares the performance of this practice with the traditional methodology of guided practice and, in the following year, the performance of the same with the implementation of other methodologies simultaneously. It is applied to a computer-aided design practice in the creation of a mechanical assembly. The practice belongs to the subject of Graphic Engineering of the third year of the Degree in Mechanical Engineering taught at the Polytechnic School of Zamora of the University of Salamanca. As a consequence of the statistical analysis of the results, the benefit that can be obtained from the simultaneous application of different methodologies has been accomplished. The main objective is to improve the learning process through educational innovation based on experimentation in the classroom. The results show an improvement of 35 % in grades compared to the previous year. Innovation ratifies the importance of adapting resources and teaching to the different learning processes of the students. The application of multiple simultaneous teaching methodologies gives the student the opportunity to choose, as well as the teacher, the opportunity to be aware of the possible specific needs of the students. This research concludes with the suitability of the application of simultaneous teaching methodologies in CAD practices for the improvement of the teaching-learning process. To implement multiple methodologies, we have used and attempted to use
common generative AI tools on the market today.
