Abstract

Teaching biology is interesting and challenging, at the same time, it is also a dilemma because new and new advances are being made in biological science: biodiversity is changing - new species are being discovered while others are threatened with extinction, and unprecedented genetically modified organisms are being created. Teachers find it difficult to keep up with all the latest developments, especially in cell and molecular biology (Tunnicliffe & Ueckert, 2007). Biology is a unique science that studies living things. The discipline of biology differs from other fields of science (e.g. physics and chemistry) in the breadth and complexity of its knowledge content and the interconnectedness of knowledge at many different levels (Wandersee et al., 2000). Regarding the use of different research methods, biology is also involved in exploring both the micro-world through microscopy, experimental work in the laboratory or in field studies of the macro-world.
