Computer-based instruction involves students interacting with a computer as a key part of learning. It can include simulations, tutorials, practice, instructional games, and problem solving. Some advantages are that it is highly interactive, requires less time than traditional methods, and requires active participation from students. However, limitations include students getting distracted by other computer uses, the time needed to develop materials, and the costs of equipment and software. Not all subjects can be assisted by computer-based instruction.
