Springer International Publishing (Verlag)
978-3-030-56049-2 (ISBN)
This book examines educational semiotics and the representation of knowledge in school science. It discusses the strategic integration of animation in science education. It explores how learning through the creation of science animations takes place, as well as how animation can be used in assessing student's science learning.
