Abstract

This research focused on the effects of Computer Assisted Instruction Method (CAIM) and lecture method in teaching Mathematics on Senior Secondary School students’ performances. The research design for the study was an experimental research design. The sample comprised 371 SSI I students, randomly selected from Six (6) secondary schools where the two methods were adopted in teaching Mathematics (i.e. The Computer Assisted Instruction Method (CAIM) and Lecture Method (LM). The Student Mathematics Performance Test (SMPT) was designed, validated and used for collecting data. The data was analysed using the independent t-test for the hypotheses. The findings revealed a significant difference in the mean achievement scores of subjects exposed to experimental treatment using CAIM and students taught using the lecture method. There were significant Differences between Male and Female exposed to the same treatment using CAIM material. It was found that male students perform better than female students. The research, therefore, recommended the use of CAIM in Government schools. It should put more effort toward the provision of ICT facilities and training of teachers for better performance in Mathematics.
