Using readily available technology, students of all ages can easily create impressive animated products. Animation allows educators to capitalize on the natural desire that students of all ages hold to tell stories and share their understanding of the world. In the course of planning their animations, students conduct research on topics, organize their findings, develop a storyboard for telling a story with the content, and use their creativity to develop an interesting product.
