“…A significant difference was found in favour of students with ARAWE between the post-test scores of the students studying through ARAWE and the post-test scores of the students studying through TWE, stemming from the fact that the students who were exposed to animations in a step-by-step mode through ARAWE learnt better. This finding supports many studies in which the positive effects of animation use in programming education have been reported (Jawad et al, 2018;Matsuma & Shindo, 2001;Rudder et al, 2007;Végh, 2016). It is also supported by the study carried out by Catrambone and Seay (2002) who reported that animations were effective at transferring information to long-term memory, which influenced the students' learning of computer algorithms positively.…”

This study examines the effect of using animation-based worked examples (ARAWEs) that are prepared using Augmented Reality (AR) technology instead of using traditional paper-based worked examples (TWEs) on the achievement, motivation, and attitude of high school students during their programming education. The research was designed through the "Nonequivalent Control Group Model", one of the quasiexperimental models. The participants consisted of second year students (N=94) who were taking the "Basics of Programming" course in the Department of Information Technologies a vocational and technical Anatolian high school in Turkey. An achievement test was applied to the participants as pre-test and final test. Motivation of the students was measured by means of the "Instructional Materials Motivation Survey" developed by Kutu and Sözbilir (2011), and participant attitudes towards using AR was measured by means of the "AR Attitude Scale" developed by Küçük, Yılmaz, Baydaş and Göktaş (2014). According to the results, both the achievement and motivation levels of the students studying on ARAWEs increased significantly compared to those studying on TWEs. There was a high level of correlation between the final test scores and the attitude levels of the students studying on ARAWEs. Considering that instructional materials containing animation-based worked examples prepared using AR technology increase students' interest and motivation in the subject, their use in lessons that include teaching problem solving skills, such as mathematics, physics, and chemistry, can be implemented in future studies.

“…Besides this, there are also studies that used the animation-based teaching method in teaching programming (Jawad et al, 2018;Matsuma & Shindo, 2001;Rudder et al, 2007;Végh, 2016). To sum up, these studies have indicated that animation-based teaching methods have a positive effect on teaching programming.…”

“…When the literature on this issue was reviewed, it was observed that the studies mostly focused on computer programming and algorithm development, they were conducted at the higher education (Catrambone and Seay 2002;Végh, 2016) or high school level (Çakıroğlu and Yılmaz, 2017;Jawad et al, 2018;Cevahir, Özdemir and Baturay, 2022), however, there were very few studies on the use of computer-aided animations in information technologies courses at the secondary and primary education levels (Arıcı and Dalkılıç, 2016). This study was conducted in the field of information technologies in order to fill the gap in the literature on the use of computer-aided animations in education.…”

In this study, it was aimed to investigate the change in the conceptual understanding of the concept of "artificial intelligence". To this end, the determination of the metaphors related to the concept of artificial intelligence in the stages before and after watching the artificial intelligence-themed computer-aided animation developed within the scope of the study, and the assessment of change between them constituted the research problem. 39 teachers working in the field of Information Technologies in the 2021-2022 academic year and 103 fifth grade students studying in a secondary school in Nilüfer District of Bursa participated in the study designed in the phenomenology pattern. In the first stage of the study, many concepts were revealed as a result of the questionnaire applied to determine the concepts that were difficult to teach, and among them, the concept of "artificial intelligence" was included in the study because it is up-to-date and open to development. In the second stage of the study, students were asked to complete the statement "Artificial intelligence is like … because ..." to determine the metaphorical perceptions of the students on the concept of artificial intelligence. Based on the themes obtained from the metaphor results, computer-aided animation on the concept of artificial intelligence was developed by the researchers. After the animation was watched by the students, the metaphor study was repeated and it was attempted to determine the change in the students' understanding of the concept of artificial intelligence. As a result of the study, although the conceptual categories regarding artificial intelligence generally had similar characteristics, it was observed that the justifications in the post-animation conceptual perceptions were more meaningful.

“…For instance, some programs motivate students to take part in cultural activities, such as museum visits or concerts, as in [17], they even offer the possibility of participating in academic projects that are coached by professors from both social sciences and STEM departments [18]. Other programs integrate arts and animation when teaching computer programming in order to increase student motivation in learning [19]. Besides, through the use of emoticoding, the integration of algebra, geometry, music, and 3D art, has been shown to improve student learning as well [20].…”
