What makes an animation good?

When is an animation not effective ?

You decide …

Long pages filled only with text.User/student treated as passive reader.

Under-designed.

You decide …

Too many focal points, frills.Content distracts from learning.

Over-designed.

What makes an animation effective?

e-learning content is effective when it is based on:

• Sound pedagogy

• Good design principles

Group activity !Select concept using graph

THINK <---> GROUP <----> SHARE

THINK• Write possible concepts• Write pros /cons

GROUP• Discuss possible concepts in your group• Debate pros & cons• Choose one concept

SHARE• Tell all of us your chosen concept

WRITE all your ideas

Different animations for different goals!

• Learning objectives:

performance based outcome of learner

• Where will animation be used?

• Who will use it?

prior knowledge of user

Features of good animationsTeaching/learning perspective

• clear learning objectives

• interactive learning

• constructivist approach

• multiple representations

e-learning content is successful when it is based on:

• Sound pedagogy – clear learning objectives– constructivist approach – interactive learning– multiple representations

• Good design principles– coherence– consistency– modularity

Group activity!

THINK <---> GROUP <----> SHARE

• What is the goal of your animation? – Target audience

– Where will anim be used

• How will you animate?

WRITE all your ideas

3 Phases to generate animations

• Concept selection

• Coding

3 Phases to generate animations

• Concept selection

• Instructional design

• Coding

Instructional Design• Instruction:

– Message describing how something is to be done.

• Designing:

– A rational logical sequential process meant to solve problems

• systematic ↔ framework ↔ methodology

• iterative process

• learner ↔ learning goal focused

• Gagne’s 9 step model: – Gain attention, Inform objectives, Recall prior knowledge, Present

material, Provide learning guidance, Elicit performance, Provide

feedback, Assess Performance, Enhance retention
