Abstract In the evolving landscape of education, traditional methods of teaching mathematics often fail to engage learners meaningfully. This study explores the impact of interactive simulations as an innovative teaching strategy to enhance academic achievement and interest in mathematics among middle school students. Grounded in the pedagogical vision of NEP 2020, which emphasizes conceptual understanding and experiential learning, the study was conducted using a quasi-experimental single-group pre-test/post-test design. A group of middle school students participated in a 10-day intervention module incorporating interactive simulations on core mathematical topics such as area, perimeter, integers, rational numbers, and 3D geometry. The analysis revealed a statistically significant improvement in post-test scores compared to pre-test scores, confirming the effectiveness of the intervention. The use of simulations enabled visualization of abstract concepts, fostered active learning, and promoted critical thinking. The study highlights the potential of technology-integrated strategies in transforming mathematics classrooms into more engaging and meaningful learning environments. This research not only affirms the positive impact of interactive simulations on student achievement but also advocates for their broader integration in mathematics instruction. It calls for teacher professional development in digital pedagogy and paves the way for further research at various educational levels.
