and techniques used to create animation.
To suggest improvements based on your evaluation

Project Based Learning

Collaborative approach

Knowledge Construction: - While working on the

criterias, students designed their animation by going
through the scenario which is interdisciplinary and
researching to produce a document on what they are
going to work on. Followed by analysing, interpreting,
synthesizing and evaluating information and ideas.

Problem Solving Skills : Students main effort

demonstrate problem solving wherein underlined need
was to produce or re-produce a story or rhyme
animation for stories4all organisation which is small.
This organization significance could be found at
https://stories4all9860264.wordpress.com/ .
The
narrative could be a new production or reproduction of
a classic fairy tale (or nursery rhyme) or production of
an original new story or reproduction of an existing
story.
So as to resolve this real time problem,
students worked on it and produced Innovative
Animations.

Use of ICT for Learning: Students used ICT. ICT

supported knowledge construction. ICT was required
for knowledge construction. The end product thus
they created was an ICT product(Animation) and the
evidence that they provided was through ICT
tools(Office Mix Plug-in, Office Softwares)

Self- Regulation : Students plan their own work by

breaking down complex task into simpler sub tasks,
defined deadlines within the given timeframe, decide

Write an evaluation of what skills you have used.
You must review the good points, less than good
points and whether improvements could be made to
the tools or technique being evaluated.
Your evaluation should include ease of use, technical
aspects of the animations created, and limitations of
the package and appearance of the animations
produced.
