The teachers felt that, students are very enthusiastic and motivated in learning with the computer aided content. Teachers reported that "when they teach science and have to draw the different parts / organs it takes a long time. Using the computer aided content this time is saved and further the students are able to learn more easily. They felt that students are asking a lot of questions, they understand the lesson better and are concentrating well in class".
Students reported keeness to come to the computer class. They want to learn even more than this. Seeing the content visualized on the screen, rather than in their books, they felt it more like seeing in real life and very effective for learning. They reported that their lessons were easy to understand now.
