Abstract

This study was intended to investigate the effect of activity based teaching on achievement of Physics students at secondary level. The pre-test, post-test control group design was used to conduct this experimental study. Two equal groups of 20 students in each were formulated through random assignment. The experimental and control groups were made on the basis of pre-test of academic achievement. Control group was educated through old way and experimental group was educated through activity based teaching. Paired Sample t-test was used to analyse the data. Conclusion included that there exists an important parameter in overall academic achievement of both groups shared through traditional method and activity based teaching. Students of experimental group gained significantly greater marks than control group students in their knowledge, comprehension, and application level of Bloom taxonomy.
