Computer Teaching Strategy For Mathematical Disabled School Children: An Experimental Study

Deepshikha Roy And Sima Pal

Published By : Laxmi Book Publication

Abstract :

The present study gives importance to special strategy (computer-assisted instruction, CAI) for teaching the mathematical disabled children. This study was investigated in a town (including urban and rural area). Study included forty (40) participant of class-III level from government school who were mathematically disabled. They were randomly divided into matched group (experimental and control) with twenty (20) participants each. Mean, Standard Deviation and t-test were employed for data analysis. The result indicated that the use of computerassisted instruction have an effect on mathematical disabled children. The result concluded that the early use of the strategy helps to gain improvement in mathematical skill.
