This study investigated the effect of Powerpoint presentationon the academic performance of senior secondary school students in metalwork technology in Zaria, Kaduna State, Nigeria. The study objectives were three, with three research questions andthree null hypotheses which were tested. The study adapted pre-test post-test quasi-experimental and control group design. A total number of 200 students, from a population of 2115 SSIII metalwork technology students were selected using purposive sampling technique. Metalwork Academic Performance Test (MAPT), developed by the researcher and validated by experts was used for data collection. Research questions were answered using Mean and Standard Deviation, while t-test statistics were used in testing the hypotheses. The results revealed that, there is significant difference in the academic performance of metalwork technology Students exposed to Powerpoint presentation and those taught the same concept using lecture method only. Students taught metalwork technology using Powerpoint Presentation performed better than their counterparts taught the same concept using lecture method. The result further revealed that there is no significant difference in the performance of metalwork technology students in the rural and urban areas taught using PowerPoint Presentation. There is also no significant difference between males and females students taught metalwork technology using Powerpoint presentation as instructional media. Therefore, the use of PowerPoint Presentation is gender friendly. Based on the findings from this study, it was recommended that the use of PowerPoint Presentation in teaching metalwork technology in secondary schools should be encouraged by Federal and States Ministries of Education. It was also recommended that stakeholders in the education industry such as federal and state ministries of education across the nation should be exposed to training and retraining teachers on the use of PowerPoint Presentation by organizing periodic seminars, conferences and workshops for teachers of science and technology
