Effect of Computer Assisted Instruction with Animation on Achievement of Students’ Of College Of Education, Minna in Quantum Physics

Abstract

Effect of computer assisted instruction with animation on state college of education student’s achievement in quantum physics was determined. A pretest-posttest control group design was adopted. The population consists of all the national certificate of education (NCE) II students in Minna, Niger State. The sample size was 136 students of one intact class .A reliability estimate of 0.89 were obtained for the Quantum physics achievement test (QPAT). The data were analyzed using mean, standard deviation and Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA).The result indicates that CAI is an effective tool in teaching. The implication of these findings is that quantum physics lecturers should use this strategy to teach quantum physics. It was recommended that, curriculum planners should infuse the use of CAI package in physics NCE programs. Authors of textbooks should involve programmers in order to add effects to their books by attaching CDs of CAI for the use of their audience.
