Schooltoons 2006 - 2009
Schooltoons was a three-year research project, funded by Arts Council England via Creative Partnerships, NESTA and other agencies.
The research involved delivering and evaluating a wide range of animation workshops in schools, providing INSET to teachers and showcasing the work in two animation festivals. The Teachers Animation Toolkit grew out of this project and is based on its research.
The following project reports are available for download, providing advice and support for teachers wishing to run animation projects in the classroom. However, for a comprehensive, up to date guide, we strongly recommend The Teachers' Animation Toolkit.
