2021-08	This study is aimed at the development of 2D animation to improve the cognitive ability of junior secondary school students in Geometry. Four research questions were raised and answered and three research hypothesis was formulated and tested. The target population for the study consisted of all the JSS1 mathematics students in Gurara, Niger State. The sample size for the study is eighty-four (84) students which consisted of sixty-four (64) male students and twentyfour (24) female students. The sample size was ascertained using intact classes and balloting was used to assign the experimental and control groups. The instrument for data collection titled Test of Logical Thinking (TOLT) and 2D animation and Interest Checklist (2IC) were used for data collection. The instruments were validated by educational technology experts and a reliability test was carried out using the the Kuder Richardson reliability coefficient and Cronbach alpha which gave reliability index of r=0.89 and r=0.78 respectively. The researcher administered the instrument to both the experimental and control groups. The findings revealed that there was significant difference between the mean cognitive scores of students taught Mathematics using 2D animation package and those taught using conventional method. The fndings revealed there was significant difference between the mean retention scores of students taught Mathematics using 2D animation package and those taught using conventional method, there was no significant difference between the mean cognitive scores of male and female students taught Mathematics using 2D animation package. The findings also revealed that there was no significant difference between the mean retention scores of male and female students taught Mathematics using 2D animation package. The study made recommendations amongst others, which included that in-service training should be organized for teachers so that they learn the process of producing 2D animation package and the use of modern instructional media for effective instructional delivery.
