Abstract
The present study investigates the effectiveness of computer based instruction on mathematics achievement in relation to mathematics anxiety. The sample of 216 students of class IX was drawn from four different schools of Jalandhar district in Punjab. Computer based instructional material was prepared and implemented to the experimental group after pre- testing. The gain scores were computed after post-test for all the students. The data obtained were analyzed statistically with the help of mean, standard deviation and analysis of variance. An analysis of variance (2×3) was used to arrive at the following conclusions: (i) The achievement of group taught through computer based instruction was found significantly higher than that of group taught through traditional method of teaching, (ii) The achievement of students with different mathematics anxiety was found significantly different from one another in mathematics, (iii) Significant interaction effect was found between instructional strategies and mathematics anxiety on mathematics achievement.
