The aim of this research was to find out the status of use of computer in classroom learning among secondary school of Dang district Nepal. Cross-sectional survey research design was employed in this research. Three hundred and ninety four (394) students from class 9 and 10 were participated in the research where multi-stage cluster sampling techniques was used in the research. Data were collected by using self-administered questionnaire. Collected data was entered using Microsoft Excel and analysis was done using Statistical Package for Social Science (IBM SPSS) version 17. Frequencies, percentage, mean, standard deviation and level were major statistical techniques used in the research. Finding of the research indicates that about half of schools have practice of teaching and learning through computer. Most of the teachers did not used computers in classroom teaching. Most of the schools (81.7%) in Dang district do not have projector facility for classroom teaching in secondary level schools. Only about half of the schools have availability of Internet facility. Barriers of using computer was high ;majority of the schools have insufficient computers based on number of students, majority of the schools lack good feature of computers in their laboratory, majority of the schools did not have computer software for the students. One-fourth of the students did not have sufficient budget for digital resources at home. More than half of the students were not using computer for educational software such as database, spreadsheets and charting/graphing however they used it for normal purpose. In overall percentage of strongly agree and agree are very high in student motivation and teaching and learning related items and reverse in challenges related items which indicate that use of computer is very beneficial for several aspect of teaching and learning process at secondary level school. Hence researcher recommended that Ministry of Education and NCED should provide on-site training and coaching, workshop and conference to secondary level school teachers. Similarly education board of government of Nepal should apply e-learning training program and teaching learning activities for the application of computers in secondary schools. As this study was conducted among only secondary level schools, this might not represent the status of overall computer use in classroom learning. Therefore, further studies are recommended without excluding those lower and higher level schools and colleges. Furthermore, the study suggests the need of further research in a large scale using both quantitative and qualitative methods.Item Undergraduate Student’s Attitude Towards E-learning(Faculty of Education, 2021) Bashyal, BinodThis study aimed at examining the attitudes of undergraduate students towards e-learning in Kathmandu Valley.
