摘要:This research investigated the effectiveness of inquiry Training Model over traditional teachi ng method in teaching chemistry at IX grade level. A total of 120 students participated in the study. The study was designed t o prepare study material for teaching chemistry for class IX using inquiry training model , study the effectiveness of inquiry trai ning model on academic achievement of students and compare the academic achievement of students studying through inquiry training model & traditional method for teaching chemistry. The researcher selected the two groups randomly where each comprising 60 s tudents & were labelled as experimental group & Control group ..The students of control goup were taught with traditional method while the students of experimental group were taught with inquiry training model. The pre test was administered to students in both the groups before teaching commenced and post test was administered after the teaching in both the groups. It was found that the calculated value of mean of Post test of control group is 12.55, standard deviation is 4.38 & the mean of Post test of exp erimental group is 17.46 and standard deviation is 5.88.Result shown that there is a statistical significant effect of Inquiry Training Model over conventional teaching method on academic achievement of students. It was observed that the students taught wi th Inquiry training method performed better than the students taught with traditional method
