Abstract:    The present research investigates the impact of the station rotation model of blended learning on the academic performance of senior secondary school students in the field of Commerce. The primary objective of the study was to assess the effectiveness of blended learning compared to traditional teaching methods in enhancing students’ academic outcomes. A pre-test–post-test experimental design and multistage sampling technique was employed. A total of 40 senior secondary students were selected and equally divided into two groups: 20 students in the blended learning group and 20 in the traditional learning group. The blended learning group received instruction through a combination of face-to-face classroom teaching and online learning activities structured within the station rotation model, while the traditional group was taught using conventional lecture-based methods. The intervention was carried out over a period of 18 days, during which the blended learning group engaged in interactive modules, digital resources, peer collaboration, and self-paced online tasks. Statistical analysis of the pre-test and post-test scores indicated a significant improvement in the academic performance of students exposed to the blended learning model in comparison to those taught through traditional methods. Additionally, the pre-test scores of both groups were found to be statistically similar, establishing the reliability of the experimental comparison. The results support the efficacy of blended learning in enhancing student engagement, critical thinking, and conceptual understanding in Commerce at the senior secondary level. They also suggest its potential as a transformative instructional strategy for improving academic outcomes and incorporating new technologies to further enhance the learning process.
