Results show that: (1) the majority of respondents surveyed found to have favourable attitude toward the last CD-ROM courseware they had used; (2) learners’ attitude towards computers was found to be highly correlated with learners’ attitude towards CD-ROM courseware; and (3) courseware characteristics of textology and immediate feedback were identified as two of the most highly correlated factors.
