This document discusses computer-assisted instruction (CAI). It begins by outlining the origins and development of CAI from its early commercial uses in the 1950s through Patrick Suppes' pioneering work developing computerized tutorials in the 1960s. The document then describes several common modes of CAI programs, including simulations, tutorials, drill and practice, problem solving, and demonstrations. It also discusses tools used for designing CAI and both the pros and cons of using computer-assisted instruction. Finally, it outlines the role of teachers in guiding CAI and concludes that CAI can be an effective teaching method when used as a supplement to direct instruction.

6.  Real or imaginary things that cannot be
brought represented using simulations.
 The most powerful applications.
 Clear direction.
 Varying levels of difficulty.
 Realistic situation for role playing.
TCP PRESENTO 2020,THIAGARAJAR COLLEGE OF PRECEPTORS, MADURAI.

7.  Instructions/Informations.
 Interactive in nature.
 Tutorials can free the faculty members by
teaching some of the routine basic material.
 At the same time the students may find the
tutorials more interesting and fun than the
instructors lecture.

8.  Reinforce learning by giving appropriate
opportunities.
 Simplest level of CAI
 It provides opportunity for the students to
repeatedly practice the skills that they have
previously learned and further practice
necessary for mastery.

16.  The computer assisted instruction (CAI) is the
most effective method followed by learner
centred teaching method and visual aids for
teaching social studies at secondary level.
 Such educational materials can serve as either
alternative or supplementary material to direct
teaching.
 It was found to be equally effective for both low
achievers, high achievers and average.
