COMPUTER SIMULATED INSTRUCTION AND ACHIEVEMENTS OF HIGHER SECONDARY SCHOOL STUDENTS IN PHYSICS
Main Article Content
Abstract
The study was designed to see the role of Computer Simulated Instruction towards the academic achievements of Physics students enrolled in government Higher Secondary Schools in Punjab. It was an experimental study having the pretest and post test results. We hypothesized that Simulation instructional strategy is more effective than conventional lecture method especially for the teaching of Physics. A thirty items Test having Multiple Choice Questions from the syllabus of Solid State Physics was administered to the students. Treatment was given for two weeks. It was found the Simulation techniques assisted by computer and the teacher is more effective than conventional lecture method to teach the Physics students. It was recommended to apply and ensure the computer simulated instructions throughout the Government Higher Secondary Schools in Punjab.
