Development and Evaluation of Computer-Assisted Instructional Package for Teaching and Learning Selected Mathematics Concepts in Secondary Schools in Osun State

Mariam Adenike Lasisi, Keji Sakiru Sulaimon

Abstract

The greatest contribution of technology is the development of the computer and its uses in teaching and learning. Pertinent to the above statement on computers, there has not been more use of Computer Assisted Instruction in treating topics like plane shapes, geometry, money, angles, and so on, in the mathematics curriculum. The study examined the development and evaluation of a computer-assisted instructional package for teaching and learning selected mathematics in secondary schools in Osun State. This study was design-based research of the model type using the Analysis Design Development Implementation and Evaluation model. A computer- instructional package was designed and developed. Five Educational Technology experts and five Mathematics teachers in secondary schools were purposively selected for validation of the video package. A total of 63 students were selected through the purposive sampling technique, with 29 from the experimental group and 34 from the control group schools that participated in the study in Iwo, Osun State. The computer instructional package was rated by the experts using Experts Rating Scales, while a reliability coefficient of 0.97 was obtained on the Instrument after validation by experts in Educational Technology. Percentage, mean, and the t-test were used for data analyses. The study revealed that a computer-assisted instructional package on numeracy was designed and developed for secondary school students using the ADDIE model. The result also indicated that the quality of the instructional package for teaching mathematics in secondary schools was rated suitable and high for teaching secondary school students. There was a difference in the performance of students taught using the package and those taught with the conventional method, with a mean difference of 2.13, and based on gender, with a mean gain of 0.03. The study equally reported that there was no significant difference in the performance of male and female students exposed to the package. It recommended, among other that the use of the computer- assisted instructional package for teaching mathematics to enhance teaching of secondary school students should be encouraged as it enhances effective learning.
