In high school physics instruction, CAI courseware has already been commonly employed as a kind of innovative instructional media. Because its outstanding auxiliary teaching function could stimulate the students'interest in learning, save teaching time, help teachers clarify difficult physical issues and so on. However, if such courseware was used improperly, it can also have negative effect on the quality of teaching. Therefore, people need to look for the accurate breakthrough point of courseware auxiliary teaching, namely its auxiliary function should take place at proper time and place. In view of this question, this article proposed some methods to help teachers utilize the CAI courseware in high school physics instruction properly and fully demonstrate its positive aspect.First, through literacy review, related research insufficiency has been discovered, as well as the determination of the research content. Then, through establishing questionnaires among students and the teacher interview compendium, present situation of the high school physics instruction has been clarified. According to the current situation, the author carried on the investigation and later on, the collected data has been analyzed. Basing on the results above, several solutions have been proposed on how to apply such kind of CAI courseware to facilitate teaching:â‘ The speed of turning pages and the rhythm of teaching must be coordinate;â‘¡The CAI courseware needs to be selected according to the needs of the course;â‘¢The CAI courseware needs to be synthetically used with other teaching media;â‘£CAI courseware can be employed in initiating new lessons, experiments, classroom practice, classroom summary and other instructional purposes. Simultaneously, the author took "Newton's Third Law" as the example for the research. Through analysis, an instructional method has been established for the teaching of "Newton's Third Law". Finally, through the previous experimental method in teaching "Newton's Third Law", the author carried on the teaching effect analysis according to the results of small examination which was held during the class, together with the student evaluation card. After that, the teaching reconsideration has been carried out, namely to propose several requests to the teacher and the students. Moreover, several proposals on how to manufacture courseware according to conform the student's actual situation have also been put forward. According to the actual feedback of the teaching practice, the author proved that in the current situation, proposed several application methods can have a positive impact on the efficiency of high school physics instruction. Such methods may also help the teachers display the CAI courseware in its full and superiority function, then enhance the quality of education as well.The CAI courseware auxiliary high school physics classroom instruction's research can be meaningful, which depends on further research on it. Therefore, how to display the superiority of such CAI courseware still needs to be explored by experts.
