5. INTRODUCTION:
• Effective teaching no doubt leads to the producing quality
work force that provides favorable competition among the
committee of developed nations. Biology education as a course
of study which is geared towards promoting understanding of
man’s relationship with his environment by establishing the
interrelationship between living and non-living as they exist
within common surrounding.

6. Continue….
• Some teachers lack the methodology to teach and make
positive impact in the students, due to several reasons such as:
poor attitude, lack of commitment, which disallow them from
delivering competent lesson in their classes. Teacher
preparation is training undertaken by prospective teachers
before being employed in the teaching. Teacher preparation is
a very vital instrument for the development and transformation
of any nation.

7. Continue….
• Biology is a branch of science which studies life. Biology
develops scientific technique attitudes and skills such as:
observations, communicating, predicting and others.
Therefore, Biology education is the act of teaching and
learning in order to inculcate or transfer this attitudes,
techniques and skills to the students. This process require
quality Biology teachers to lead the crusade.

8. Objectives :
• The basic objectives are to prepare students to acquire the
following:
1. To acquire adequate laboratory and field skills in Biology.
2. To gain meaningful and relevant knowledge.
3. To have reasonable functional scientific attitudes.
4. To have the ability to apply scientific knowledge to everyday
life in matters of personal and community health and
agriculture.

9. EFFECTIVE PEDAGOGICAL APPROACHES:
 In order to effectively teach Biology
subject the following pedagogical
approaches are paramount:
1. Lecture method
2. Laboratory method
3. Questioning method
4. Project method

10. THE ROLE OF QUALITY BIOLOGY TEACHER:
• For Biology teacher to be effective he/she
must have the following qualities:
1. Competency to deliver effective lesson.
2. Use relevant and adequate teaching aids.
3. Knows different teaching methods: when
and how to implement.
4. Consider how best the students can learn
and would be given the necessary
attention.

11. BARRIERS TOEFFECTIVE TEACHINGOFBIOLOGY:
• There are some barriers which hindering the
process of teaching and learning of biology
are:
1. Teacher’s low qualification
2. Less laboratory equipments
3. Inadequate teaching aids
4. Large class size
5. Underfunding
6. Poor teacher training

12. CONCLUSION:
• The key role of a Biology teacher is to teach and make
meaningful impact on his students learning achievements by
employing different teaching methods. The attainment of the
goals of Biology education largely depend on the quality of
Biology Teachers, to overcome some of the challenges’
mentioned in this paper like Teachers preparation, Teachers
qualification, lager class size etc.

13. RECOMMENDATIONS:
1. Teachers without teaching qualification should go for one year
studies i.e. Post graduate diploma in education (PGDE).
2. Biology Teachers should further their studies to have a wider
scope of knowledge for the task ahead of them. (Teaching
methods).
3. The management of the institution should always employ
qualified laboratory technologist/ qualified Biology Teachers
for smooth and efficient running of practical’s in the
Laboratory.

14. Continue….
4. Biology Teachers should try and apply all the effective
teaching methods practically in their classrooms.
5. Government should always place education at the top and
provide all the necessary funds needed for schools and
institutions to move forward.
6. Authority concerned with training staff should always
encourage their staff to go for seminars, workshops and
