ABSTRACT

The main aim of present research work was to find out the efficacy of Computer Assisted Instructions on the academic achievement of the Intellectually Disabled Children. For this study, investigators have selected; sample of 28 intellectually disabled children, with the help of purposive sampling technique. The total sample was divided into experimental (15) and control (13) groups purposively. Academic achievements were measured by Educational Assessment Checklist for Children with Intellectual Disabilities (EACCID). The study took place over a period of six months. The first group was the experimental group in which the meeting with the teachers occurred before the intervention days to review the procedure. During the meeting suggestions regarding the procedures were incorporated. Findings concluded that exposure of Computer Assisted Instructions had the significant impact on academic skills of Intellectually Disabled Children whereas regular classroom teaching instructions are less effective than Computer Assisted Instructions.
