The main purpose of this study is to explore the effectiveness of the “Information Technology Integrated into Instruction” and the “Traditional Instruction” on the academic achievement in mathematics for elementary school students. This study adopts quasi-experiment research design. The sample involved in the research is sixty-one students of the third grade in Yunlin County. One class (thirty-one students) plays as the experimental group arranged to get the Information Technology Integrated into Instruction. The other class (thirty students) is designated as the control group. Both of the groups took pre-test and post-test on the achievement test in mathematics. And the experimental group filled out the survey on the Information Technology Integrated into Instruction in mathematics. In order to get more information about the teaching efficiency, the score of the post-test was analyzed and the researcher conducted an interview with three students from the experimental group. The results of this study are as follows: 1.There is a significant difference on the post-test score of the academic achievement in mathematics between different teaching methods. 2.There is no significant difference on the post-test score of the academic achievement in mathematics for the students of the high ability level who are taught by different teaching methods. 3.There is no significant difference on the post-test score of the academic achievement in mathematics for the students of the medium ability level who are taught by different teaching methods. 4.There is a significant difference on the post-test score of the academic achievement in mathematics for the students of the low ability level who are taught by different teaching methods. 5.There is no significant difference on the post-test score of the academic achievement in mathematics for the students of same gender who are taught by different teaching methods. 6.There is no significant difference on the post-test score of the academic achievement in mathematics for the students of different genders in the experimental group. 7.Information technology integrated into instruction is helpful in teaching sexagesimal scale. 8.The students in the experimental group generally hold positive opinion toward the information technology integrated into instruction for teaching in mathematics.
