ICT is now permeating the educational system as a tool for effective teaching and learning. With multimedia, the communication of information can be done in a more effective manner and it can be effective instructional medium for delivering information. Multimedia access to knowledge of the possibilities of information and communication technology has tremendous impact on learning.
