1. To conduct a research activity that is related to the title
alongside the primary school children in SKK SK. St. Anne.2. To
analyze the relationship between animation and learning among the
students in SKK SK. St. Anne.3. To implement research in such a way
that utilizes Action Research Methodology well.Interview
QuestionsAnimation is a huge part of the entertainment industry
nowadays. It is a very profitable form of media and popular
especially with kids.1. What are your views on animation (its
value, positive/negative effects, usefulness)?Its potential in
education has already been documented. Based on previous
researches, including my last data collection session, many
teachers view it as a good fit and an interesting method to include
in the learning system; and the children showed positive feedback
with animation usage in learning.
However, setbacks such as cost, availability and acceptance (in
terms of maintaining the use of the technology) has so far held it
back from really setting foot in the education forefront for
Malaysia in general and areas such as Labuan specifically.2. What
are your current knowledge of animation implementation in
learning/education?Its a form of dynamic representation that
display processes that change all the time. For example, they can
show the flux of high and low pressure areas in a weather map.
3. What do you think of the idea of using animation to learn?
And are your thoughts on it being implemented in primary schools
within Labuan?
4. Do you wish to see more or less of such implementation of
modern technology/methods in education?
Action Research focus on cycles of the research being done and
close relationship between the researcher, and all the other
parties involved to get results.
5. How do you feel about researches that encourages the
researchers to have more direct communication and cooperation with
their target groups? How do you think that will make any difference
to the research?This specific research aims to study what it is
like to implement animation in learning using a small sample of SKK
SK. St. Anne English Year 3s syllabus. The group in the mix
includes 15 students from the class 3 Berlian. Ms.Kamaliah has been
working with me throughout the entirety of the program and Ms.
Azleani has helped me for the final session.6. For the duration
that you were involved, give your thoughts on the program.
The final session is when the students get to see the animation,
learn from it, and take a test that was constructed by the
teacher.7. As you had a hand in the final session what are your
overall thoughts on it? (In terms of the planning, execution, your
involvement, students acceptance and response to the session) How
do you think it could be executed better?
8. All in all, after knowing about such research and even be
involved first hand with it; what are your final overview on it?9.
Moving forward, how should the program evolve in your eyes to make
it more successful in primary schools, not just in areas such as
Labuan but all across Malaysia?Ms. Azleani may edit this document
with your answers or make a new document and answer in that; and
then send it to me via email. [email protected] you
teacher for all the cooperation, advice and hospitality through the
whole program.
