Animation & Visualization
Animation is a useful tool for instruction. It is best suited to illustrating processes or relationships that change or evolve over time. Animation can focus attention on critical aspects of a complex environment or system. Animation is also an effective way to condense the delivery of information and concepts into short, entertaining segments.
