The study was carried through quasi experimental design. Two intact groups of grade eight students of public sector school were selected randomly. Lesson plans based on ITI were validated by the experts. The intervention period was of six weeks. Math Achievement Test (MAT) was used to find out the effect of ITI on academic achievement of students in mathematics at elementary school level. The findings indicated that ITI significantly impacted pupils' motivation and academic success in mathematics.
