        abstract = {This study examines how Art-Integrated Learning affects the biological science knowledge of ninth-grade students attending government secondary schools in Ganjam District, Odisha. A pre-test–post-test control group design was used in the investigation. Using cluster sampling, a total of 120 students were chosen and split evenly into experimental and control groups. While the control group received training using traditional ways, the experimental group was taught specific biology units utilizing art-integrated instructional practices. Data was gathered using a Biology Achievement Test that the researcher created and standardized. The t-test, mean, and standard deviation were used to examine the data. The results showed a statistically significant difference in favor of the experimental group, suggesting that Art-Integrated Learning improves biological science knowledge more successfully than conventional approaches. The study emphasizes the educational value of incorporating the arts into scientific instruction for purposeful and enjoyable learning.},
