The Effectiveness of Computer Animation on the Learner's Achievement in Physics

摘要

This study focused on the effectivity of computer animation on the learner's achievement in Physics. It also aimed to compare the effectiveness of the animated lessons with traditional classroom instruction. The experimental research design was used in this study with subjects consisting of 48 engineering students from two sections in College Physics 1. One section served as the experimental group, which was exposed to, animated lessons and the other served as the control group that was subjected to traditional teaching method. The instrument used in data gathering was the achievement test. The study revealed these findings: that there was no significant difference in the achievement of students in the pretest of the control and experimental group while a significant difference was noted in the achievement of the students in the posttest of the control and experimental group.
