THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND
Introduction
Despite the significant advancements in education, a considerable number of students continue to pursue a career in animation. Drawing is a fundamental skill in animation, forming the basis for everything from character design to storyboarding and motion. For students pursuing animation, mastering the ability to translate creative ideas into visual forms is a crucial step in their artistic development. However, mastering animation strategies reveals various difficulties that students must navigate. This includes the lack of resources available to students, slow progress in mastering lessons, unsatisfactory quality of education, limited creativity, and insufficient understanding of the fundamental principles of drawing. Amid these challenges faced by students, many are working to address the problems of the youth. Several teachers are developing creative approaches to enhance learning, improve students' skills, provide them with experience, and stimulate their creativity.
According to C K Praveen et. al. (2022), the animation has influenced the viewer's visual attention through the integration of the different stimuli and the highly organized presentation. Students’ with limited skills may struggle to engage effectively with the artwork, leading to an image that lacks visual appeal. Insufficient use of basic techniques, color, contrast, and improper organization of details will prevent the artwork from making the intended impact on its evaluators. However, the study highlights the crucial role of mastering the fundamentals, as it can greatly enhance students' drawing abilities. Deficiencies in these foundational skills may lead to a decline in self-confidence and a reduced passion for pursuing their chosen career.
Similarly, Mardi et. al. (2023), stated that animation had become one of the important things needed to produce interesting visual content. Good animation skills can increase individual competitiveness in the world of work and can also affect the chance of getting a job. These skills represent considerable challenges, particularly for students with limited artistic abilities, and may have a profound effect on their professional prospects and success in their chosen fields.
Researchers from Nasugbu East Senior High School aim to understand students' drawing difficulties for enhanced animation skills and strategies. They also intend to gather data in order to develop strategies that will enhance animation skills.
Background of the Study
Drawing is essential in many aspects of life, including the arts and beyond. It's more than just a method for creating graphics. It is an excellent instrument for communication, expression, and problem solving. Limited artistic skills often hinder students' mastery of animation drawing techniques and strategies, as there is limited access to resources, lack of confidence, and insufficient understanding of basic drawing concepts.
According to Harun et. al (2024), an animation-based drawing learning mode involves simple animation from the beginning to the end of the drawing, with the teacher acting as a facilitator and guide. If students fully engage with the activities in the facilitator's guide, their basic drawing skills will be enhanced. In addition Nagarkatte & Oley (2017), stated that knowledge can provide individuals with solutions for creative tasks, and prior knowledge can both enhance and limit creativity. Prior knowledge empowers creative thinking and enhanced skills, overcoming drawing difficulties.
Students often face challenges such as limited access to resources, lack of confidence, insufficient understanding of basic drawing concepts, and a lack of creative thinking. Addressing these issues is crucial, as studying the difficulties in drawing can significantly improve students' animation skills and strategies. This study aims to identify effective techniques and strategies to help students overcome the challenges they face, ultimately enhancing their skills and improving their approach to animation.
In lieu thereof, the research utilized the phenomenological research design to understand students’ drawing difficulties for enhanced animation skills and strategies.The findings were the bases for creating a system or strategy in learning animation principles which will offer valuable insights on this topic.

According to Charmpatsis et al. (2023), children with learning difficulties tend to produce drawings that lack detail, proportion, and symmetry compared to their peers without such difficulties.These challenges may come from issues with hand control, thinking, and understanding space, making it harder for them to draw what they see or imagine.
Moreover, Egan-delSol (2023), Creativity, as a multifaceted process that encompasses cognitive and socioemotional abilities, is the ability to generate and implement innovative and useful ideas. Without creativity, people and communities may find it hard to adjust to changes, solve problems, and discover new ideas.
Furthermore, Ardila (2025) stated that Having poor observational skills is the main reason drawing is hard for most artists. Good observational skills allow artists to create drawings that feel more alive and believable.
In addition, Fiorella and Zhang (2018), Students may not create quality drawings without sufficient guidance.Without sufficient guidance, students may lack the necessary skills, techniques, and understanding to create high-quality drawings.
Impact of Students' Drawing Difficulties on Academic Performance and Career Aspirations
According to Prayitno et al.(2022) An animation-based drawing learning model involves simple animation from the beginning to the end of the drawing, with the teacher acting as a facilitator and guide. The research is based on the fact that there are still many children who have difficulty expressing themselves through their drawings due to low imagination. The goal of this study is to develop a practical drawing learning model based on animation for children.
Moreover, Jalava (2024), Generating a visual representation of a concept through drawing has been established as a valuable strategy for improving memory. Struggling with drawing can be frustrating, especially if the individual perceives it as crucial for learning. This can lead to disengagement, making them less likely to use visual representation as a memory strategy.
Furthermore, Cinar at. el. (2023) Children’s motor skills reflecting the sequences of movements that produce smooth and efficient action have been linked to academic performance of Students without adequate motor skills might face challenges in various academic areas.
Effective Strategies for Animation Students with Limited Artistic Skills to Improve and Succeed in Their Studies
According to Ritchie et al. (2023), students with limited artistic abilities can enhance their learning through structured drawing instruction and cognitive skill development. Their study demonstrated that with proper guidance and practice, students can improve their visual and spatial abilities, leading to better performance.
Moreover, Lhejiamaizu et. al., (2020) stated that Biology teachers should be encouraged through workshops, seminars, retraining programmes on practical drawing.Mentors should be well-skilled in order to further develop the skills of the student studying drawing.
Furthermore, Jeetha amd Prasad,K. (2021), The willingness of learners to interpret information, the format of information provided to learners, and the usage of multimedia technologies should be used to reduce the time spent teaching and at the same time optimize the knowledge transfer. This speaks to the importance of active learning. Instead of passively receiving information, learners should be encouraged to actively interpret, analyze, and synthesize what they are learning.
Theoretical Framework
This study is interconnected with Arnold Gesell's Maturational Theory (1928), as cited by Gregory Ow (2023), The Maturational theory was developed by Arnold Gesell, an American psychologist and pediatrician in the early 20th century. The theory asserts that children's development occurs in an orderly and predictable sequence, primarily influenced by genetic factors. According to Gesell, this development unfolds through a series of predetermined stages, which he referred to as maturational stages. According to the theory, children learn in stages of development in a fixed order. In connection to this, a student who initially faces difficulties in drawing will gradually improve through continuous, intensive instruction, starting with the basics and eventually becoming an expert.
The theoretical perspective is applicable in the present study as it comprises various aspects encompassing components in Animation expertise. The interconnectedness of this concept linked the Understanding students drawing difficulties for enhancing animation skills and strategies. Moreover, acknowledging the importance of this theory would strengthen the crafting of learning materials to enhance Animation skills as it will provide substantial parameters for inputs in its realization.
Conceptual Framework
Based on the explained conceptual theory used in this study, the researchers recognize the importance of conducting a critical analysis of the variables influencing Animation expertise. This analysis allows for a deeper understanding of the relationships among these factors, enabling the development of credibility drawing strategies that enhance both instructional approaches and students' drawing skills.

| P5 | “” {“Difficulty with drawing can result from numerous factors, such as absence of basic skills, inadequate experience with various artistic methods, poor observation skills, and challenges in comprehending anatomy and perspective. Students can also be hindered by fear of failure, lack of confidence, or inadequate practice. Outside factors such as partial access to quality equipment and teaching may also inhibit.”} | Lack of Knowledge |
Interpretation for table 1:
All responses of the participants are about lack of knowledge, lack of materials and lack of confidence. Table 1 shows underlying causes of drawing difficulties among animation students. One (1) experienced lack of confidence is what causes drawing difficulties among animation students, while three (3) expressed the lack of knowledge and another one (1) expressed lack of materials.
The findings of the study align with the literature reviewed, particularly regarding the notions of Underlying causes of drawing difficulties among animation students. Erimona (2015) the artist improvises a lot especially when other materials are either very expensive or not available.
Furthermore, the study’s finding directly correlates with the work of Prayitno et al.(2022) An animation-based drawing learning model involves simple animation from the beginning to the end of the drawing, with the teacher acting as a facilitator and guide. The research is based on the fact that there are still many children who have difficulty expressing themselves through their drawings due to low imagination. The goal of this study is to develop a practical drawing learning model based on animation for children.
Moreover, The study's findings align closely with the research conducted by Fiorella and Zhang (2018), students may not create quality drawings without sufficient guidance. Without sufficient guidance, students may lack the necessary skills, techniques, and understanding to create high-quality drawings.
Overall, the study identifies key factors such as lack of knowledge, materials, and confidence, as causes of drawing difficulties.

Interpretation for table 2:
All responses of the participants are about lack of understanding, lack of confidence and poor performance. Table 2 shows the impact of students' drawing difficulties on academic performance and career aspirations. One (1) expressed lack of understanding, while one (1) experienced lack of confidence and another three (3) experienced poor performance.
These answers line up with the literature that was reviewed. For confidence related topics of Prayitno et al.(2022) An animation-based drawing learning model involves simple animation from the beginning to the end of the drawing, with the teacher acting as a facilitator and guide. The research is based on the fact that there are still many children who have difficulty expressing themselves through their drawings due to low imagination. The goal of this study is to develop a practical drawing learning model based on animation for children.
The study's findings are closely related to prior research on Li et al. (2021) Here, an utterly simple approach by pencil drawing is employed to improve the poor performance of normal Zn anode and hinders the formation of passivated byproducts as well as serious dendrite growth.
The study's findings are consistent with existing research on Novitasari et al. (2024)the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based animation in the learning process still faces various challenges, such as a lack of understanding of the potential of this technology and limited infrastructure. The purpose of this study is to identify the role of the global ecosystem in optimizing AI-based animation learning practices in Islamic education environments.
In conclusion, the study identifies key impacts of drawing difficulties on academic performance and career, such as lack of confidence, poor performance, and exclusion.
