The objective of this study is to reveal the effectiveness of Cognitive Apprenticeship Model of learning taught through Multimedia Instructional Approach on Problem Solving Skills at grade Nine of the secondary education. The study used the Experimental method with pre-test post-test equivalent two group design. The study group of the research consists of 32 (64) students in experimental and control group each selected from random sampling. The content instructed to the experimental group was prepared using methods and techniques based on Cognitive Apprenticeship model and taught using Multimedia Approach while the control group was instructed through conventional method specified in the curriculum. At the end of the experimental period the data was tested at .05 level of significance using 't' test as the statistical tool. The findings revealed the significant effect of Cognitive Apprenticeship Model of Learning on Problem Solving Skills in Mathematics taught through Multimedia Instructional Approach at Secondary school across ability levels. This study explores the elements of Cognitive Apprenticeship Model through Multimedia Instructional Approach and concludes with a call for more systematic and integrated programme of studies working towards the development of guiding principles to support curriculum, instructional design, teaching, and learning based on the Cognitive Apprenticeship Model.

The content instructed to the experimental group was prepared using methods and techniques based on Cognitive Apprenticeship model and taught using Multimedia Approach while the control group was instructed through conventional method specified in the curriculum. At the end of the experimental period the data was tested at .05 level of significance using 't' test as the statistical tool. The findings revealed the significant effect of Cognitive Apprenticeship Model of Learning on Problem Solving Skills in Mathematics taught through Multimedia Instructional Approach at Secondary school across ability levels. This study explores the elements of Cognitive Apprenticeship Model through Multimedia Instructional Approach and concludes with a call for more systematic and integrated programme of studies working towards the development of guiding principles to support curriculum, instructional design, teaching, and learning based on the Cognitive Apprenticeship Model.
