Influence of the Animation Technique for Teaching the Lesson Unit of “Relationships Between Living Beings and Energy” on Students’ Achievement

Summary/Abstract: The purpose of this study was to examine the influence of the computer-aided animation technique for teaching the lesson unit of “Relationships between Living Beings and Energy” on students’ achievement. In the study, the semi-experimental research method was used. The research sample included a total of 36 8th grade students attending a secondary school in the Ahlat, a district in the city of Bitlis. In the study, the lesson unit of “Relationships between Living Beings and Energy” was taught to the control group students with the traditional teaching method control and to the experimental group students with the animation technique. As the data collection tool, Science and Technology Achievement Test (STAT) was used. The research hypotheses were tested with independent t-test analysis. The results of the analysis revealed that the control group students and the experimental group students had mean scores of 7.75 and 10.65, respectively. In addition, a significant difference was found between the control group and the experimental group. Consequently, teaching with the computer-aided animation technique had positive influence on the students’ levels of academic achievement.
