N2  - The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of computer instruction (CAI) and tradition on the achievement of fourth-grade computer students. One hundred and nineteen students were selected and randomly divided into two groups: an experimental and a control group (60 and 59 participants respectively). Using a posttest-only control group design and a t-test for independent samples, it was found that the students who were instructed by using the Computer Literacy Series (Version 2) software, developed by the researcher, achieved significantly higher scores on the posttest than students who were instructed using the traditional learning method (t=2.14, p=0.05). In addition, results of the affective questionnaire administered to CAI users showed motivation towards using the Computer Literacy Series software. It was conclued that the designed software was significantly effective in raising the achievement and motivation level of student who used technology as a means to enhancing their content knowledge of Computer as subject matter.Limitations of the current study and recommendations for the future research were also discussed
