CHAPTER ONE

1.0 INTRODUCTION

A computer is an electronic machine, which can accept data as input, process and proffer the result as an output, at an alarming rate. Computer has proliferated due to its ability to process data and deliver the information effectively and accurately. Its versatility made it applicable relatively in all the field of human endevours. The research work is concerned with the development of an efficient, reliable and accurate computer assisted learning system on primary school mathematics.

This is made possible by the use of computer through efficient and accurate programming activity, which is just a mental process of problem analysis and program design in most developing countries presently, its globally known that mathematics is the course that student often have problem to assimilate due to its technical and volatile nature. Most people strongly believe that some pupils are dulls, which makes them unable to understand, far from it, generally we all know that mental development in kids varies, some are mentally particular topic will destabilize some. Those with retrieve memory will assimilate while others will have theirs half baked with the help of computerized system, every pupil will devote enough time to stud a particular topic critically to his or her satisfaction to achieve the technique needed in taking related or such problem. However, the aim of this research work is to design software, (program) which will water down efficiently and accurately the procedures and techniques to solve and calm the alarming situation that befalls young ones in their primary school days.

1.1 STATEMENT OF PROBLEMS

The problems statement is mainly centralized on the existing method of teaching mathematics. The information obtained from the pupils through oral interview and observation shows that the existing method of teaching mathematics will never help the situation. Most students believe that mathematics is generally and naturally not understandable while some complain based on time schedule. About 30% like engage in morning lectures, reason is not they strongly believe its’ morning and the brain is still very ready to absorb information. More so, about 10% are complaining of the mathematics lectures not been always available and the mode of teaching is always uninterested. However, introduction of software (program) will graphic capabilities which provides interaction with the aid of menu between the user and the computer system will bring end of this difficulties and enhance the level of learning in institutions.
