Algorithm Animation for Teaching

چکیده

We give an overview of rules and techniques to create a good algorithm animation, with emphasis on animations that would be used when teaching algorithms. In this context, we propose that animations should in particular emphasize the visualization of correctness invariants and the complexity of the algorithms. This implies that writing a good animation must be more than just showing the graphically enhanced run-time debugging provided by most common animation systems; instead, each animation must be individually designed and programmed.

Developing EFL Learners' Oral Proficiency through Animation-based Instruction of English Formulaic Sequences

The current pretest-posttest quasi-experimental study attempts, firstly, to probe the effects of teaching formulaic sequences (FSs) on the second or foreign language (L2)  learners' oral proficiency improvement and secondly, to examine whether teaching FSs through different resources (i.e. animation vs. text-based readings) have any differentially influential effects in augmenting L2  l...

The Study of Education Based on Animation in Patient’s Performance under Hemodialysis in Emergency Evacuation Selected Hospitals of Aja

Introduction: A disaster evacuation program is one of the most important parts of hospital crisis management. The following study was carried out to determine the effects of animation-based teaching on hemodialysis patients’ performance in an emergency evacuation. Material and Method: In this quasi-experimental study, two out of four AJA Hospitals in Tehran that had hemodialysis wards, were sel...

Graph Algorithm Animation with Grrr

We discuss geometric positioning, highlighting of visited nodes and user defined highlighting that form the algorithm animation facilities in the Grrr graph rewriting programming language. The main purpose of animation was initially for the debugging and profiling of Grrr code, but recently it has been extended for the purpose of teaching algorithms to undergraduate students. The animation is r...

3D Animation of Java Program Execution for Teaching Object Oriented Concepts

The successful teaching of the object oriented programming paradigm has been identified as a difficult task. Coupled with the difficulty of conveying abstract concepts in general to students, is the complexity of the object oriented paradigm itself. A common approach to conveying complex abstract notions (such as algorithms or data structures) is the use of visualisations. This paper describes ...

Animations for Teaching Purposes: Now and Tomorrow

Animation is commonly seen as an ideal tool for teaching dynamic phenomena. While there have been very few studies testing this hypothesis, animations are used extensively in teaching, particularly in the eld of algorithms. We highlight features that we consider important for animation systems, describe the development of algorithm animation by examples, and present a new Java-based system supp...
