Abstract

The purposes of this research were to develop the computer-assisted instruction based on the standard criteria of the efficiency at 80/80 and to compare the students’ achievement before and after learning through the computer-assisted instruction on the topic of Force and Motion in the science strand for the 9th grade students. The sample was randomized by cluster random sampling, consisted of 30 students which studied at classroom 3/1 of Namyuenwittaya School, Si Wichian, Nam Yuen District, Ubon Ratchathani. The research instruments were the computer-assisted instruction on the topic of Force and Motion which divided into four sub-topics and an achievement test consisted of 40 items with the difficulty indices range from 0.50 to 0.74 and the discrimination indices range from 0.22 to 0.55 and the reliability value was at 0.89. The statistics used to analyze data were percentage, mean, standard deviation, and t-test.

The research findings were as follows:

  1. The efficiency values of computer-assisted instruction which produced by researcher was the 80.42/84.24.
  2. The students’ achievement after using the computer-assisted instruction was higher than that before using it with the statistical significant at .01 level.
