Resumen:This study investigated the effect of computer-assisted instruction on the performance of Library and Information Science undergraduates in Delta State University, Abraka. The study adopted a pretest-posttest control group quasi-experimental non-randomised research design. The population of the study comprised 467 undergraduates in the Department of Library and Information Science, Delta State University, Abraka. A total of132 students participated in the study. The instrument used for the study is a multiple-choice achievement test in LIS302 (Technical Services Division). The statistics that were used are mean, standard deviation, t-test and Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) at 0.05 level of significance. The findings revealed that there is a significant difference in the pre and post-test scores of students taught using computer-assisted instruction; that there is a significant difference in the post-test scores of students taught using computer-assisted instruction and those taught using traditional lecture method, and that there is no interaction effect between sex and teaching method in the post-test scores of students. Based on these findings, the researcher recommended amongst others that, Library and Information Science lecturers should adopt the use of computer-assisted instruction in the teaching of Library and Information Science so as to improve the overall academic performance of the students.
