Technological gadgets increasing everyday allowing newer communication and notations. Of these technological gadgets, animation, simulation, video and multimedia usage in physics teaching provides diverse benefits. Therefore animation and simulation are widely used in education. In such learning environments, students are exploring physics world, thereby they can easily understand and form their basic knowledge. So animation and simulation is used in this study, named “Resistors in Series and in Parallel”. Primarily, an animation is composed about resistors in series, then connection of ammeter and voltmeter to series-circuit are showed. For each resistor in experiment, the current and voltage values are told to students through animation. Also the derivation of formulas for current, voltage and resistance calculation in series circuits are told in animation. Afterwards, an animation about resistors in parallel is composed and connection of ammeter to circuit is showed. The current on main branch, then voltage and current values for each resistance are calculated. To comprehend the topic better, arithmetic operations and derivation of formulas are showed in animation.
