Abstract:
The research was undertaken to analyze” EFFECTIVENESS OF COGNITIVE BASED TEACHING ON ACHIEVEMENT IN
MATHEMATICS AMONG STUDENTS. “The study was conducted on a sample of 60 students. The design selected was
pre- test post-test non-equivalent group design. The constructivist instructional approach was used in the experimental group and the
traditional approach was followed in the control group. An Achievement test was also prepared to test the effectiveness of each group under
study. The technique of Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) was used to test the equivalency between groups. Mathematics teaching through
cognitive based teaching was found to be more effective than the conventional method.
