The DOST’s courseware has a touch of entertainment while maintaining knowledge and challenge in science lessons. A copy of courseware in CD is attached at the back of this paper. This study is devised to enhance the level of achievement in National Achievement Test items mentioning the concepts of Nervous System, Ecosystem and Energy Transformation. The cooperative learning group will be taught using the conventional approach while the computer-aided group will be divided into three groups and each group will be provided with a laptop or computer unit wherein DOST courseware in Science 6 is installed.. Both groups will have 3 sessions and 3 formative tests right after each session. Each item of the 10-item formative tests will be constructed by the teacher using the multiple choice format.
