The purpose of this study was to Designing computer-based Educational program of math concepts and comparing its effectiveness with the traditional method on spatial visual perception students. The research method is semi-experimental and with pre-test and post-test design with control group. The statistical population of this study included all male students studying in elementary schools in the fifth district of Tehran during the school year of 2016-2017. The sample size of this study consisted of 45 people who were selected through purposeful sampling. Among them, 15 students in the experimental computer program, 15 students in the experimental group and 15 students in the control group. Kolmogorov-Smirnov and Shapirovylak, T-test and covariance tests were used to analyze the data of this study. The research tool was the Frosty Space Spatial Perception Test with a reliability of 0. 69 and a computer training program with a reliability level of 0.71. Comparison of moderated averages of the visual-spatial perceptions of the experimental group with the control of the difference in the score shows a score of 93.22, which is significant at the level of 0.001. By summing up these results, it can be stated that education through computer-based math concepts has been effective in improving the visual-spatial perception of students. Comparison of the moderated averages of the visual-spatial perceptions of traditional groups with the educational curve shows the difference between the score of 130.11 and the level of 0/001. These differences are such that the average of the group of computer training programs is always higher than the traditional one.
