Over the past four years, the Indian education system has increasingly adopted essential 21st-century skills in line with the vision of NEP 2020. Among these, the integration of digital resources has significantly transformed traditional classroom teaching. In mathematics education, digital resources create new learning opportunities and positively influence students’ understanding. Therefore, this study examines the effect of digital resources on learning mathematics at the secondary school level. Using survey data collected from different Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalayas (JNVs), the study applies ANOVA and Chi-square tests to analyse the impact of digital resources on students’ mathematics learning outcomes. The findings offer valuable insights for teachers, curriculum designers, and policymakers to improve technology integration in mathematics education.
