Abstract

The study entitled "Effectiveness of Multimedia in Teaching Learning Mathematics" was focused to compare the achievement of student taught with using multimedia and without using multimedia. A pretest-posttest of quasi-experiment research design was used to compare the achievement of two gropes experiment and control. The researcher chose 20 students of grade IX in Shree Baraha Kalika Secondary School as an experimental groups and 20 students of Shree Kalika Secondary School as control group. After completion of the target chapter researcher collected the data from mathematics achievement test and set of questionnaire related to five point likert scale. The mathematics achievement test was administered to both group and mean score was calculated from the sample of control groups. The difference in mean achievement was tasted using t-test for determining statistical different between them. A part from quantitative outcomes the researcher observed the student regularity interaction, co- operation and readiness for learning. The result indicated that there was a significant difference between the average achievement score of experimental and control groups on post-test. This finding illustrated that the students in the experimental group performed better when using multimedia then control group with the traditional teaching method. Additionally, a set of questionnaire related to likert scale was used to expose the students view on multimedia in learning this questionnaire was administered to only experimental group. The result show of questionnaire showed that student gave positive feedback or view about using multimedia in teaching learning.
