O’Day, PhD Department of Biology UTM Animated Teaching: Home-made Animations and their Use as Pedagogical Tools Introduction: Introduction Students learn in different ways Students have different backgrounds Use of diversity of teaching tools Animations are one type of tool Slide3: Value of Animations For communicating dynamic events Can reveal complex interactions Facilitate communication in lecture Can post on web—Distance learning; AccessAbility Technical Issues: Technical Issues Animation programs are difficult to learn Programs are relatively expensive Making animations is time-consuming Once completed animations cannot be changedSlide5: Why Make Your Own? No available animation exists Available animations aren’t suitableThe Solution: The Solution Use PowerPoint™ Capture PowerPoint™ animation with Camtasia Studio™ Export animation in appropriate formatPedagogical Parameters: Pedagogical Parameters Stage-appropriate material (Tversky & Morrison ‘02) Images & text adjacent (Mayer ‘03) Term/Text spoken as it appears (Mayer ‘03) Narration in conversational tone (Lowe ‘03) Some student control (Tversky & Morrison ‘02) Visual cues reflect change (e.g., Colour/ Shape; Wilson-Pauwels, 1997)Slide8: A Sample Animation is Available Online at: www.utm.utoronto.ca/~w3bio315/restricted/anim.htm Sequence of Events: Sequence of EventsSlide10: Move item position on successive slides Add/Remove items to/from successive slides Use Custom Animation: -make items appear sequentially in one slide -Animation path: make items move within single slide Ways to AnimateCamtasia Studio™: Camtasia Studio™ Program is a PowerPoint™ 2003 add-on When animation ready click on “Record” Presentation starts and stops recording Export animation in any movie format www.techsmith.com 3 month free demo (education pricing: $149USD) Initial Results: Initial Results Graphic vs Animation Group I: Graphic 5 Min. = 69.4 ± 3.9SE Group II: Graphic 15 Min. = 71.3 ± 3.4SE Group III: Animation 5 Min. = 57.6 ± 2.1SE Group IV: Animations 15 Min. = 84.4 ± 4.1SE ANOVA 1-way analysis of variance: IV significantly different from I, II, III (P<0.05)Student Comments: Student Comments Animation better than graphic (77%)| Many comments on animation quality Prefer access to both Each has its place/value Issue: computer access for animation Final Comments: Final Comments Method: simple & pedagogically sound Animations are easily revised/updated Can share PowerPoint™ files: others can adapt to their needs Opens door to getting more info. on uses, value of animations Future Goals: Future Goals Further analysis of value (e.g., long-term retention) Can add true interactivity: e.g., multiple choice quizzes in flash files Web pages: Series of animations & quizzes—step-by-step learning packagesReferences: References Lowe, 2003.
