Abstract
This study explores the effectiveness of using animation videos in moral education through a bibliometric analysis, utilizing the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) technique. The research focuses on synthesizing the findings from 57 articles sourced from Scopus and Web of Science (WOS) databases, aiming to understand the current trends, gaps, and impact of animation as a pedagogical tool in moral studies. By employing a Systematic Literature Review (SLR), this study meticulously filters and evaluates relevant literature to provide a comprehensive overview of the field. The analysis reveals a growing interest in integrating animation videos in educational settings, particularly in enhancing the teaching of moral values. The findings indicate that animation videos are increasingly recognized for their potential to engage students more effectively compared to traditional teaching methods. The study also highlights key thematic areas such as the influence of animation on students' moral reasoning, the role of cultural context in moral education, and the technological advancements facilitating the creation of educational animations. By exploring the impact of animation on moral development, this review provides valuable insights for educators and researchers, advocating for the broader adoption of animation as a pedagogical tool in moral education. The study's findings underscore the potential of animated media to shape the ethical awareness of younger generations, enhancing the overall effectiveness of moral studies.
