Abstract

 

Education is an indispensable instrument for the development of any nation. Teachers are the implementers of the educational programme and they are responsible for the translation of educational theories into practice. For teaching to be effective, it has to be rooted in an understanding of how students learn.  In this study, attempt has been made to investigate the survey of difficult concept in biology. Census sampling techniques was employed to select Twenty-eight (28) Biology teachers from twenty one (21) secondary schools in Ijebu-North Local Government Area of Ogun State. The researcher used a well-constructed questionnaire which sought after the difficulties in teaching of Biology practical, adequacy of laboratory equipment, concepts and principles in the Biology practical curriculum in shaping the students for external examination. The descriptive research design was used in the study. Four research questions were raised and analyzed using mean score, all the research question were answered positively. Findings showed that teachers do not perceive Biology topics as difficult. It revealed that students perceive Biology topics as difficult. Also the study indicated that there was significant different in teacher and students perceived difficulty in concept of biology. Base on the results of the findings, some recommendations were made by the researcher.
