Abstract: This study investigated the Effects of Computer Animation instructional package (CAIP) on Achievement of pre-service Biology teachers in Kwara State Colleges of Education, Nigeria. Quasi-experimental design involving pretest, posttest experimental and control group design was adopted. A total of 368 pre-service Biology teachers formed the population of this study. The sample of the study 120 pre-service Biology teachers selected from intact classes of two co-educational colleges of Education using multi-stage sampling technique. The experimental group of the study was selected purposively and this comprises 60 pre-service Biology teacher (32 males and 28 female) was taught through CAIP while their counterparts in the control group which comprises 60 pre-service Biology teacher (29 males and 31 female) was taught using developed validated and administered conventional lecture method. The study answered two research questions and tested two null hypotheses. The instruments cell Division Achievements Test (CDAT) used was developed, validated and administered to the students, the reliability coefficients of CDAT was established at r= 0.95. Research questions were analyzed descriptively using means and standard deviations. Null hypotheses were verified at p < 0.05 levels using ANCOVA. Results revealed significant difference in the academic achievement of pre-service Biology teachers exposed to the CAIP and those taught using conventional lecture method. The study also revealed no significant difference in the academic achievement of male and female students exposed to CAIP. From the findings of the study. It was concluded that using computer animation in cell division concepts has the potentials of enhancing pre-service Biology teachers’ achievement. It was recommended, that the Federal and State Ministries for Tertiary Education to provide computers and projectors for teachers to facilitate teaching with animations.
