Using Computer Animated Graphics in Science Instruction with Children.

Rieber, Lloyd P.

Journal of Educational Psychology, v82 n1 p135-40 Mar 1990

Effects of animated presentations and practice were studied in a computer-based science lesson involving 55 fourth graders and 64 fifth graders. Results suggest that animated graphics can promote learning, and they demonstrate successful application of interactive graphics in the design of cognitively based practice activities. (SLD)
