Abstract

Biology can be perceived as a difficult subject to learn due to the conceptual leaps required to understand particular biological topics but now ICT facilitate many things to students and teachers, especially in Morocco. This study investigates the use of 3D animation as an aid for teaching in Moroccan universities. An experiment was conducted with two groups of the first year classes option Biological Engineering: Biological and Biochemical Analyzes students to ascertain if animation can be used to support the teaching of Biology and we took as an example Cell Biology module. The results of this experiment show that animation can be useful and students find it more helpful for them to understand the course.
