The validity of the teacher-made tests was confirmed by the content validity. The reliability calculated for the multiple choice items through Cronbach's Alpha. The reliability calculated for the open-ended items through the scorer’s reliability.

The data analysis was done through descriptive statistics and inferential statistics. The findings of this study showed that there was no significant difference between the experimental and control groups with regard to the academic motivation. But there was a significant difference between the experimental and control groups with regard to the academic achievement. Thus, the hypothesis of the effect of Apprenticeship method based on multimedia instruction on the academic achievement of students was confirmed.
