AB  - The study assessed the efficacy of power point presentation as an information and communication
technology tool on achievement of students in Physics and Mathematics. A lone null hypothesis was tested
for the study. A one-group time series research design was adopted for the study using a sample of 86 SS 1
Physics students from two secondary schools. The one-group time series subjects were exposed to power point
presentation mode of teaching. Identified extraneous variables which could pose threats to the internal validity
of the findings of the study were controlled. The instrument used for data collection was Physics and
Mathematics Achievement Test (PMAT). Items of PMAT were adopted from the Physics and Mathematics
curricula of senior secondary school class one students. The instrument was trial tested and an internal
consistency reliability coefficient of 0.85 and estimate of temporal stability of 0.79 were obtained. The subjects
were pretested twice before the experiment and post tested twice after the experiment at 3 weeks interval. The
data obtained were analyzed using mean and Standard Deviation (SD) and repeated measure Analysis of
Variance (ANOVA) was used to test the lone null hypothesis at 0.05 level of significance. The findings revealed
that power point presentation as an ICT tool had significant effect on achievement of students in Physics and
Mathematics. It was thus, recommended that curriculum planners and teachers should consider the use of ICT
tool as instructional mode in teaching and learning of Physics and Mathematics as well as other science
subjects.
