In the present study attempt has been made to find out the effect of Multi Media Teaching on achievement in biology. Objectives of the study were 1. to find out the effectiveness of Multi Media Teaching on achievement in biology and 2. to find out the effectiveness of Multi Media Teaching on achievement in biology among boys and girls in experimental group. Hypotheses of the study were 1. Multimedia teaching would promote achievement in biology and 2. the attainment of different objectives of achievement in biology would be same among boys and girls in experimental group. For the present study, two sections of 9th standard consisted of 38 and 39 students of Samhitha High School, Kurabrahalli, Bangalore have been chosen as the sample. Cluster and random sampling procedure was employed in the selection of the sample. Achievement Test in Biology developed by the investigator has been used for the collection of data. The major findings of the study were 1. Multi Media Teaching significantly promoted achievement with respect to knowledge, understanding, application and total achievement in biology in comparison to conventional method. 2. Different objectives like knowledge, understating, application and total achievement in bio9logy were significantly attained by both boys and girls in experimental group.
