Abstract

An animation-based drawing learning model involves simple animation from the beginning to the end of the drawing, with the teacher acting as a facilitator and guide. The research is based on the fact that there are still many children who have difficulty expressing themselves through their drawings due to low imagination. The goal of this study is to develop a practical drawing learning model based on animation for children. 153 children aged 5-6 years participated in this study. An observation sheet was used to collect data on the shape and color of objects in children's drawings. Both qualitative and quantitative data analysis was utilized. The results revealed that limited trial, large scale trials, and wide-scale trials have a positive effect on children. The impact has been observed to exhibit a rising pattern. The results showed that the animation-based drawing learning model can be implemented in children 5-6 years old to stimulate drawing artworks.
