Animations put fun into physics and maths

In summary, animations are visual representations of mathematical and physical concepts that can be used as teaching aids to demonstrate abstract concepts and engage students in hands-on learning. They have many benefits in teaching physics and maths, including improving students' understanding and retention of concepts, increasing their interest and motivation in the subject, and making lessons more engaging and enjoyable. Animations can be used to explain various topics in physics and maths, such as motion, forces, waves, geometry, and calculus, as well as explore real-life applications and scenarios. Teachers can create their own animations using software and online tools such as Adobe Animate, Powtoon, and Plotly, or find pre-made animations and simulations on educational websites and resources.
