The Study was undertaken to examine the effect of constructive teaching approach on academic achievement of students. For this we have conducted an experimental study on 10+1 students in subject of Economics(optional). A sample of 80 students was divided into four equal groups. One experimental group of high intelligence students, one controlled group of high intelligence students, one experimental group of low intelligence students and one controlled group of low intelligence students. Experimental groups were taught by the constructive teaching approach and controlled groups were taught by conventional method. Pre and Post tests were conducted on all the groups and the post test scores and the differences of pre and post tests were taken into consideration for analysis of the result. This study revealed that the students who taught by constructive method they gained better than those students who taught by conventional method.
