How to make use of appropriate learning style, to make best instructional material for learning is the challenging task of teacher educators? CAI program is the effective instructional material for learning of school students in today's technology world and constructivist paradigm. Teacher educators can implement Self Directed learning approach (SDL) that is one of the most effective learning styles to prepare CAI program. Teacher educator can provide Instructional Scaffolding which includes teacher's mediation for Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD) when student teachers develop CAI program.
