Abstract

This study investigated the effect of computer-Assisted instruction on basic concepts in Biology on secondary school students’ achievement in Enugu Education Zone Quasi-experimental research design, specifically the pretest, post test, Non-equivalent control group design was employed. A sample of 365 SS1 Biology students (165 males and 200 females) in four schools drawn from a population of 20455 using simple random sampling to get 4 intact classes. Biology Achievement Test (BAT) developed by the researchers was used for data collection. The BAT was face validated and reliability co-efficient of 0.83 was obtained using Kuder-Richardson’s 2D(KR-20). Three null hypotheses guided the study. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to test the null hypotheses at 0.05 level of significance (P<0.05). The result showed that biology students taught with CAI achieved higher than those taught the same concepts using lecture method. There is no significant difference on the influence of gender on the academic achievement of Biology students taught with CAI and lecture methods Based on the findings, it was recommended among others that Biology teachers should be exposed to workshops, seminars and conferences on the integration of CAI in teaching and learning of Biology in secondary schools.
