There is no significant difference between pre-test and after-test of NCAI teaching class. The difference analysis between CAI and NCAI indicate that CAI has an significant increase of the learning motivation.(2) Through taking three terms of CAI and NCAI teaching class' s physical achievement to do "GLM-Repeated Measures", the result indicate that: The achievement of CAI teaching class is higher than before, but the achievement of NCAI teaching class is lower than before.
