The video explores different methods to represent how position changes over time, starting with a table format. It then introduces animation as a way to visualize these changes, using a lemon on a number line. Finally, the video explains how to construct and interpret a position-time graph, which provides a clear visual representation of position changes over time without needing animation. The video concludes with a recap of the animation and graph to reinforce understanding.
