ADVANTAGE OF USING POWER POINT ANIMATION AS A DIGITAL TOOLS IN CLASSROOM

Today I am going to talk about the advantage of using powerpoint animation as teaching tools in the classroom.  Powerpoint is a versatile presentation tool that can be used as multiple tools in teaching. Animation character in powerpoint tools can be used as a teaching tool to achieve teaching goals a student can engage in the classroom easily.       

  Always remember power point animation is easy by using a few pointers and need some practice. Example as digital storytelling, report, instructional gaming. Later I will share you how I use animation tools in powerpoint to create an Elephant story for Moral value Subject. The animation is more effective than static sequence to attract student attention during a lesson in the class. Screencasting can be done using power point. Please view my powerpoint Animation Story od The Great Elephant.
