The cutting edge of animation based science education

Welcome

The 3D animation facility has covered topics that span from Gleevecs mechanism of action, to the factors effecting drug distribution in the body. It has become a collaborative effort between faculty and students to produce educational tools to facilitate the explanation of complex topics to their peers. Click on the links to the left to access all of our animations and learn more about our program and facilities at the URI college of Pharmacy.

The animations are now used routinely in various pharmacy courses at URI. The students’ responses to our animation initiative are overwhelmingly positive, thus reinforcing the power of animation as an effective teaching tool. The students consider themselves as a visual generation and have expressed a desire to see more animation, especially in courses that require understanding of complex chemical and pharmacological processes involving drugs. Faculty are equally excited since it’s a new teaching tool that holds the attention of students.
