Using animation as a tool in Primary School Education - Greek Mythology

Authors: Efstathiou, S. and Callus, P.

Conference: Using animation as a tool in Primary School Education - Greek Mythology

Dates: June 2010

Abstract:

This project was a collaborative event that will involve a series of workshops and lectures over the span of 5 weeks to staff/ students at Hillview Primary by Paula Callus and Sofronis Esthathiou, with an aim to look at the use of animation tools within the learning environment. Students in Year 5 (9-10years old) will be completing a short animated film based on Greek Mythology, using cut-out/collage direct animation. The film was entirely designed and developed through from concept, narrative to style and production, simulating the production pipeline within an animation studio, by the students themselves.
