Level of implementation, 10 experts who were interviewed have tried to use the interactive software in their schools. Level of evaluation, 10 experts will fill the same checklist to specify whether this interactive software can apply science process skills or not. The data analysis found, interactive software that has been developed is able to apply the science process skills amongst primary school pupils. In future, hopefully there are a lot of interactive software can be developed to help teaching and facilitation in schools, science process skills among pupils. Interactive software definitely makes learning of Science more interesting.
