Abstract :

Teachers in the classroom can be able to identify the students with diverse needs as well as they may aware of their accommodations, learning environment and instructional strategies (Govindaraj, S, 2017). Animation based teaching method may attract and improve the attention among students in the classroom. Animation based teaching may kindle the interest and enhances the learning of students with diverse needs. This study makes an attempt to assess the influence of Animation in enhancing attention of students with Emotional/Behavior Disorder. Experimental method is used and 5 students with Emotional/Behavior Disorder were taken as sample according to observation by the investigators and the opinion from teachers. In this study, it is concluded that Animation based teaching enhanced the attention of students with Emotional/Behavior Disorder. Students with Emotional/Behavior Disorder sit in the classroom for a prolonged time and their duration of attention is increased because of animated teaching. This study recommends the educationists, administrators and teachers to enhance the knowledge towards develop, design and implement animation based teaching in the classroom to the students with or without disabilities during teaching. This study also recommends the Rehabilitation Council of India to include Animation based teaching as one of the teaching strategies for handling students with Emotional/Behavior Disorder.
