Redesigning the Content in Line with STEAM Education and Achievement in Mathematics: Creative Pedagogical Approach at School Level

The STEAM education emerged as alternate pedagogical approach for holistic education in line with NEP 2020. The study redesigned the content of mathematics of class 9 of CBSE curriculum for STEAM education and examined the creative pedagogical approach at secondary level through true experimental research. The study experimented through three groups, namely a control group (CG) and two experimental groups (EG). The existing content of mathematics in CBSE curriculum of class 9 was taught through traditional pedagogical approach to the students of control group (CG), while experimental group-I (EG1) was intervened with redesigned content of mathematics in line with STEAM education through traditional pedagogical approach and experimental group-II (EG2) with redesigned content of mathematics in line with STEAM education through creative pedagogical approach. The investigation found that there is no a significant mean difference in mathematics achievement between CG and EG2 and also between EG1 and EG2. The study recommends that similar experimental studies may be conducted to arrive at comprehensive understanding of redesigning the content of mathematics in line with STEAM education and creative pedagogical approach to fulfill the needs of the learner at secondary level.
