Make teaching physics fun, easy and dynamic! Create animated models to explain how physics works in students’ lives. By using stop motion, students will demonstrate mastery of physics concepts by creating and sharing animations using their smartphones. Empower your students by producing amazing physics stop-motion videos.

Engage your students in the world of physics, helping them understand the concepts and variables involved in the different kinds of motion. Through the application, they will explain the motion of objects (Newton's Law), the attraction and repulsion of charges (Coulomb's Law), and how a hydraulic system works (Pascal's Principles).
Your students will learn communication skills by recreating physics concepts in their everyday lives, accomplishing a meaningful and lasting experience.
Through Stop Motion animation, your students will develop digital skills by making objects come to life through a series of successive pictures that describe and explain the laws of physics. To make this project, students may use toys, colored paper, building blocks, dolls, play dough, etc. to create the objects for their animations.
This is a fun and creative project that will make your students fall in love with physics!
All the participants will have access to the Stop Motion gallery created by our students; they will be able to download our project description, rubrics and checklists that could be applied to their own students. Participants will also take part in a demonstration of how to use Stop Motion.

Elizabeth is a technology integration specialist and engineering teacher at Colegio Los Altos School in Guadalajara, México. An Apple Distinguished Educator and Google Certified Innovator, she holds a master’s in edtech from Tecnológico de Monterrey University. Pinzon developed Los Altos' edtech vision, transforming its learning ecosystem by integrating 1:1 device programs, developing a full spectrum of technical training for teachers, and fostering the tech culture that has become integral to teaching and learning at Los Altos. She facilitates the school’s e-learning protocols, while creating and delivering professional development for all teachers and technology programs. She’s also responsible for the middle school and high school STEAM program. Pinzon formed one of the first all-girls robotics teams in Mexico. Her teams have participated in multiple national competitions and the VEX World Championship five times. She’s certified by Carnegie Mellon as a professional development VEX PIC & CORTEX robotics teacher, and has spent over a decade working to fully include girls in robotics programs.
Guille has a degree in Chemistry in La Salle University. She has taught Chemistry, Physics and related subjects in High School and Junior High for more than fifteen years. She got certified in Cooperative Learning by the Miami Educational Research Institute and is also certified in Competency- based training. She has participated in Science Expositions and has organized the school Science Fair. Guille has been presented since 2011 Physics and Chemestry projects.
