Abstract

Drawing and sustaining the interest of learners as well as ensuring better understanding seems to be the main advantages in animation. The technique of capturing successive frames of pictures or positions of toys or models that create an illusion of movement while the movie is shown as a sequence gives life to animation. The invasion of e-resources into the educational arena had opened innumerable avenues for the instructors, administrators, and researchers. This chapter makes an attempt to test the effectiveness of science educational animation over conventional class through an experimental study and also would like to sense the attitude of the learners towards animation classes. The findings support the fact that science teaching through animated lessons stands superior to conventional science classes and students also have positive attitude towards animation. The researcher concludes that animation in its own virtue along with enthusiasm of digital native learners would grow leaps and bounds in the near future in the educational sphere.
