animation in education

My article, titled, "Challenging perceptions about alcohol", discusses what types of technology can and should be used to educate students about underage drinking. The topic of underage drinking is very important to talk about and inform students about because drinking and driving is in the top five major causes of teen deaths in the United States. The article hints at the aspect of using animation. The point of the article is for the students to make a project or documentary about the effects of underage drinking.I think that the article would be better if the writer described how effective it would be to use animation over film, blogs, video clips, ect. Animation is a great tool to use in education because the students are more likely to pay attention to animation more than staying attentive to the teacher. The message might even come across more personally in that type of program than in others.
