Abstract

Slow learner students have problem in their learning as compared to their class fellows. They face difficulty in learning different concepts of science subject. Information and Communication Technology (ICT) helps students to succeed in world. The interactive CD is one of the tools of ICT. Slow learning students can practice repeatedly on these interactive CDs to improve their learning. This study was designed to investigate the effectiveness of an Interactive CD for the remedial teaching of slow learners in a science subject. An experimental study was conducted for four weeks in a government elementary school in Rawalpindi. Thirty slow learner students of the fifth grade level class, were the sample subject of this study. Different concepts of General science were taught to these students through the Interactive CD. This CD contained material on body parts (e.g., heart, and liver etc.). Data was collected through pre- and post-tests. The paired sample t-test was calculated to find out the significant difference between mean scores of pre- and posttests of the experimental group. The significant values of t-tests 0.00, indicates that teaching through Interactive CD helped these slow learner students in their understanding of difficult concepts of general science subject.
