Digital Learning Material in 2D Animation for First Year Drafting Technology Students

This study developed and evaluated a digital learning material in 2D Animation for First Year Drafting Technology Students of the Marikina Polytechnic College for the academic year 2023-2024. The developed digital learning material in 2D Animation was evaluated by two (2) groups of respondents composed of fifteen (15) experts and fifteen (15) industry practitioners. A survey questionnaire was utilized to gather the data, and it covered the following variables: quality of content and technical aspects. The findings revealed that the two groups of respondents evaluated the developed digital learning material in 2D Animation as Highly Acceptable with respect to quality of content with a grand weighted mean of 3.83 and 3.69, respectively. In terms of technical aspects, it gained grand weighted means of 3.88 and 3.76, respectively. In addition, there was no significant difference between the evaluations of the two groups of respondents on the developed digital learning material in 2D Animation in terms of quality of content with a computed t value of 1.76, 1.12, 1.85, 0.98, 1.16, and 1.79, respectively. In terms of technical aspects, it gained a computed t value of 1.26, 1.37, 1.27, and 0.72, respectively. The insightful comments and suggestions provided by both groups of respondents hold significant potential for enhancing the quality and effectiveness of the developed digital learning material in 2D Animation. Furthermore, it was recommended that the School Administrators may encourage Instructors in other fields of specialization to explore on developing instructional materials that will help facilitate learning and improve the performance of their respective students.
