Computer-Aided Teaching Using Animations for Engineering Curricula: A Case Study for Automotive Engineering Modules

One-dimensional (1-D) demonstrations, e.g., the black-box systems, have become popular in teaching materials for engineering modules due to high complexity of system’s multidimensional (e.g., 2-D and 3-D) identities. The need explanations on how multiphysics equations systems work is vital students, whose learning experience must gain a cognitive process understanding utilizing such multiphysics-focused into pragmatic dimension. lack knowledge expertise creating animations visualizing sequent processes operations academia can result an ineffective students. This study explores benefits animation, which eventually improve student experiences. In this article, use computer-aided animation tools evaluated based their capabilities. Based strengths weaknesses, offered some insights selecting investigated tools. To verify effectiveness learning, survey was conducted undergraduate postgraduate cohorts automotive academics. survey’s data, analytics discussion more quantitative results. historic data (2012–2020) analysis has validated efficacy as achievements study, where average mark both significantly improved, with reduced rate failure.
