Abstract
This study investigates the “Effects of Computer Assisted Multimedia Instructional (CAMI) package on Secondary School Students ’Achievement in Biology in Two Educational Zones of Niger State, Nigeria”. The sample comprised of 364 (206 boys and 158 girls) students selected from six senior secondary schools in Two Educational Zone of Niger State, Nigeria. There were two experimental groups and a control group. One courseware version named Computer Assisted Multimedia Instructional (CAMI) package was developed to examine the effect on students’ achievement. The research design was a quasi-experimental pre-test, post-test and control group design. The experimental groups were taught using Computer Assisted Multimedia Instructional (CAMI package and the control group was taught using lecture method. The Biology Achievement Test (BAT) of a 40 items was validated by expert for data collection. The reliability co-efficient of 075 was obtained. Five (5) hypotheses were formulated and tested at 0.05 alpha levels. The data was analyzed using ANCOVA. The findings of the study showed that student’s in experimental groups achieved significantly better than their counterpart in control group. There was statistically significant difference in the achievement of Male and Female students when compared with the control group. Also, there was no statistically significant difference in the achievement of Male and Female students when compared within the same experimental groups. Based on my findings, it was recommended among others that the use of Computer Assisted Multimedia Instructional package for teaching and learning should be encouraged in our schools.
