dc.description.abstract This study investigated the effect of computer-assisted instruction on students’ performance on selected concepts in cell division at Adisadel College in the Cape Coast Metropolis in the Central Region of Ghana. The sample population was made up of eighty (80) biology students, forty (40) from the Green Track and forty (40) from the Gold Track. Quasi-experimental design was used in the study and students were sampled purposively. The survey was conducted by using questionnaire and test items. The data was collected, organised and analysed using mean, standard deviation, percentages, frequencies, and t-test. The findings of the study revealed that students who were exposed to Computer-Assisted Instruction (CAI) performed significantly better than their counterparts who were taught with the conventional instruction. Again, the study showed that using Physics Education Technology (PhET) simulations in teaching cell division improved students’ knowledge and sustained their interest as it changed the abstract nature of the concept to concrete form for easy understanding. en_US
