Hence, creating an animation is one of the techniques that can be used by science students to explain science
concepts. The importance of investigating and organising information is instilled in students as they create
animations while soft skills such as teamwork and knowledge sharing, through discussion of science concepts, are
facilitated at the same time (Henry, Harrison, & Hummell, 2010). In addition, the techniques applied for animation
creation can cultivate creativity; creativity in this sense does not refer to an ideal concept of creativity as it is
understood in general terms but refers to a more realistic definition of creativity in accordance with the KSSR
objectives for the teaching and learning of science that is to stimulate students’ curiosity and interest about the world
around them as well as develop their creativity whilst they seek to understand the basic science knowledge and
concepts. This definition of creativity reflects the creative process that students experience during the preparation of
an ArtsMedia presentation based on a specific science concept rather than a definition of creativity that focuses on
the concept of “discovering” new ideas. Moreover, a state of confusion exists when the process of inquiry in the
teaching and learning of science is commonly accepted as the process of creativity among students; as a result majority of science teachers consider it is not a necessity to incorporate any other concept of creativity in their
instruction since they are already practicing creativity.
