Computer based multimedia is a tool rich enough to enhance the knowledge and skills. In the present scientific and technological age, the conventional teaching methods are not sufficient to arouse interest among the students and do not meet up to the intellectual, psychological and emotional needs of the students. A teacher being a pivot in the process of teaching and learning, knowledge of ICT and skills to use ICT in teaching —learning has gained immense importance for today’s teacher. With the advent and popularisation of internet and worldwide —web (www) the world has become higher cohesive and interconnected in nature.
