The objectives of teaching economics in schools were highlighted. The paper also identified the potentials of CAI and factors influencing the use of computer assisted instruction in teaching/learning of economics which include; teachers lacking the knowledge of the utilization of computer assisted instruction as well as lack of fund for the procurement of facilities for the effective implementation of the use of CAI. Also, the problem of irregular electricity supply that will aid the implementation of CAI in schools.
