Summary/Abstract: With the aim to provide a learning content that is digitally delivered to assist low achieving children, this paper proposes some helpful features in an interactive courseware. The low achieving children usually encounter reading problem. Therefore, common courseware with textual instructions are not suitable for them. Accordingly, this paper discusses an Interactive Computer Assisted Learning courseware for Low Achievers known as Bijak Matematik. The application consolidates the well-defined components and elements that induce positive interaction supported with helpful object behavior features in the learning courseware. This study went through a threestage research process, which are i) design, ii) development and iii) user experience testing. Having design and develop the application, user experience testing was conducted with 30 participants from five primary schools. Result justifies that the prototype (iCAL4LA-Bijak Matematik) is significantly very helpful to the targeted users.
