Effect of Computer Assisted Instructions on Science Achievement of Ninth Grade Students
The well-known aim of science education is to teach the science concepts meaningfully and make students become aware of how these concepts can be used in their daily lives. In this process, learning the basic concepts during the primary and secondary education is very crucial in terms of learning the advanced concepts. Once traditional teaching methods are used in teaching science subjects, students understand subject at knowledge level and they usually memorize the science concepts without understanding the real meaning. As a result, they do not conceptualize the science concepts well as intended. Thus, all these factors influence student's attitudes, cognitive development and achievement in science and science education. In this study researcher studied effect of CAI on Science achievement of ninth grade students. The sample for the study comprised 115 class IX students. There were two sections of ninth class in Navjot Sr. Sec. School and Khalsa Public Sr. Sec. School situated in Amritsar. One section from each school was randomly assigned to experimental group and another section from each school constituted control group. The students of Experimental Group were taught through Computer Assisted Instructions. . Every day, 35 minutes' period was devoted for this purpose. This continued for 30 working days. The results of the study showed that Computer Assisted instructions were significantly superior to the Traditional Method in teaching and retention of Science.
