ICT empowering every field as education sector is also not untouched from it and at present lots of innovative technologies are present in education. But at practical level, use of technologies in teacher education programme is not so much. To inculcate knowledge of technological skills among prospective teachers, it is necessary to use new technology in teaching of prospective teachers. In this context, an attempt has been made for higher learning the effectiveness of multimedia package on learning outcome of prospective teachers in relation to academic stream (science, commerce & art). This is an experimental study with 2x3 factorial design. 60 prospective teachers selected through multi-stage stratified random sampling technique on the basis of their academic stream (science, commerce & art) were taken as a sample out of which 30 prospective teachers were taught through multimedia formed experimental group (EG) and 30 prospective teachers were taught through conventional method of teaching formed control group (CG). The self-developed achievement test applied to assess the learning outcome of the prospective teachers on unit-3 ‘Theoretical perspective to enhance learning among children and adolescent’ in the course-1: Childhood & growing up of B.Ed. syllabus (B.Ed. 2-year programme (2016-18)). Lesson plans and formative assessments developed with the help of multimedia technology to carry out teaching learning process of experimental group for nine weeks only. Learning outcome per-test, post-test was collected before and after experimental treatment and after that, mean gain score was also computed. Then, data were subjected to analyzed by using ANOVA followed by t-test to determine the performance by comparing the mean scores. Results revealed that prospective teachers taught through multimedia package showed a significant difference in their learning outcome than the conventional method. Further, science, commerce & arts prospective teachers taught through multimedia package performed better than their counterparts. There was no significant interaction effect of instructional treatment and academic stream on mean gain learning outcome scores. In conclusion, this study had supported that teaching through multimedia instructional package improve the prospective teachers’ learning performance.
