Abstract
This research paper is about the importance of coloured books in helping the slow learners to learn
better. Schools prepare the students to face the competition of the real world by focusing on their
overall development. The present study was planned to identify the role of coloured books in
developing interest and strengthening content knowledge of slow learners. The researcher selected
20 students of Grade 2 from the ‘Government Special Institute’ Center for Slow Learners from
JhangSadar by simple random sampling method. These students were divided into two equal groups
(10 students per group) for comparison. Researcher developed two tests; Test 1 (TACB)
administered students of Group 1 who were taught with the help of coloured books. Whereas, Test
2 (TABAWB), was given to students of Group 2, who were taught with the help of black and white
books. It was observedthat the coloured books had more impact on slow learner studentsas
compared toblack and white books. It is observed that whenbad quality printed or photocopied
books are used in schools, the students usually lose interest in studies. The Education department,
curriculum developers and other stake holders needs to take the responsibility of selecting relevant
books of good quality which bear a relation to the students in terms of environment, educational
standard and literacy level.
