ABSTRACT
This research study is focused on computer aided learning of basic science subjects using SS1 class as a case study. This study is aimed at designing computer based aided learning of basic science subjects, and the objectives are: to develop a system that will create interaction between a student and the teacher, to create a computer based learning science subjects for the students and to implement a computer software to aid the students’ learning. The significance of the study involves what the students will acquire academically after going through the study or exercise and it is to support and encourage students in collaborative learning, encourage students to take responsibility for their own learning. Complimenting classroom teaching showcases the vast multi usefulness of the computer and motivates students through appropriate use of interactive course ware. The research methodology used is systematic methodology and the programming language used for the development of the system is Visual Basic.NET, and MS Access as database.
