Yay animation box

Yay Animation Box is an easy way to start working with animation in schools.

Childhood has changed rapidly over the past few years – and the methods that we use as teachers and educators of children and young people should reflect these changes. Children learn best (and most!) when they enjoy what they are doing and are motivated. Using animation as a tool to encourage and develop children’s learning is not only fun but effective!

By using animation children develop skills and competencies in:
• Visual communication
• Cognition
• Observation
• Concentration
• Problem-solving
The method of animation as a learning tool can help create children who can more easily solve assignments in a supplementary flexible, creative and cooperating way. Furthermore it can make children much more aware of Medias which they already spend a lot of time around.

- 1 license to Stop Motion Pro, the animation program
- 2 DVDs with teaching materiel

The Centre for Animation Pedagogics (CAP) is a development department focusing on the use of animation in teaching, communication and pedagogics. Animation has proven to be a fantastic learning tool to many different groups. The youngsters are highly motivated when they work with animation because they know the media from their daily life, they are in control, they get to use their imagination and they quickly achieve visible results of their work. This motivation is the foundation for many projects carried out by the department. The educational foundation, which CAP is based on, is 20 years of practical learning and the use of animation as a didactic tool appropriate for all age groups.
