The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of the use of technology on the instruction of Mathematics and English I secondary schools within the Nigeria public schools system who participated in a pilot program on the use of geometer sketchpad (GSP). Three of these schools were randomly programmed on how to use GSP to teach geometry. Each school sent a teacher to a summer in-service training program on how to use GSP class and a traditional geometry class taught by the same teacher were the study participants. Student’s mathematics FCAT results were examined to determine if the GSP produced any effects. Student’s scores were compared based on assignment to the control or experimental group as well as gender and SES. SES measurements were based on whether students qualified for tree lunch. The findings of the study revealed a significant difference in the performnace of students who were taught with instructional materials and those who weren't. The results of this study promote policy changes in the way geometry is taught to 10th grade students in Nigeria Public Schools.
