Abstract:
Abstract This study is about preschool teachers' perceptions of biology teaching in preschool. The study examines three questions based on the purpose of the study that focus on preschool teachers 'perceptions of biology teaching in preschool, the child's perspective as a starting point in biology teaching and preschool teachers' reasoning about the importance of the outdoor environment as a learning environment for biology teaching. The study is based on previous research results that highlight preschool teachers' lack of subject knowledge and uncertainty in science teaching at preschool. In addition, both the preschool curriculum and research studies emphasize the child's perspective in teaching. Learning environment in the form of both indoor and outdoor environment in accordance with previous research studies is a contributing factor in children's learning and development. In this study, the learning environment is highlighted as an outdoor environment in the form of the forest, nature walks and the preschool yard. The study results are based on empirical data collected based on semi-structured interviews with six preschool teachers in two different municipalities in western Sweden. Interviews are then analyzed based on a phenomenographic methodological approach. The results show that preschool teachers' perceptions of the subject of biology and its teaching in preschool are mostly linked to nature, animals, plants, and the human body. The results also show in different ways where the preschool teachers take care of children's questions and perspectives and set it as a starting point in the planning of biology teaching. This is done by planning the teaching with the children where the children get a chance to talk about what they want to learn and do in preschool. Finally, the preschool teachers explained that the learning and teaching environment as an outdoor environment in the form of the forest, walks and the preschool yard has an important role in children's learning in biology.

Abstract:
This research focuses on uncovering, from the perspectives of practitioners themselves, the practical knowledge and understanding that shapes three teachers' successful teaching of biology at A level. Adopting a case study approach, it investigates the ways in which these biology teachers characterise their successful teaching of the subject at A level. It also explores the subject matter knowledge and understanding that shapes and accounts for these characterisations without making assumptions about the nature of this knowledge. Data are collected through the non-participant observation of a connected series of the teachers' A level biology lessons as well as informant-style interviewing following the observed lessons. The findings suggest that the main aim of the teachers' successful teaching of biology at A level is to ensure their students achieve examination success. In light of this, their teaching can be characterised in terms of three central features. First, they believe that to achieve this aim their students only need to know the substantive dimension of biological knowledge - they do not consider knowing the syntactic dimension to be a prerequisite to examination success. Second, they believe that their students need to conceptualise this substantive biological knowledge in several patterned ways. Third, they believe that the best way to encourage their students to develop and retain these specific conceptualisations is by adopting carefully controlled and highly structured teacher-centred pedagogical strategies. The teachers' characterisations appear to be shaped and accounted for by specific conceptions of biology which provide an overall structure to substantive biological knowledge - a structure that is determined by various guiding principles. This research provides a first attempt to map out the practical knowledge and understanding that shapes the successful teaching of biology at A level from the perspectives of teachers themselves. The ways in which these teachers characterise their teaching differ significantly from the ways in which such teaching is described in most of the extant literature in science education on teaching and learning. This study suggests that the teachers, far from lacking in knowledge, skills and understanding, are highly skilled practitioners who respond to the local and national contexts in which they work and, taking account of these, shape their subject matter teaching accordingly such that their main aim - student examination success - is achievable. This study highlights the discrepancy between academic writing in science education on practice and practice itself. The thesis ends with a consideration of the implications of the study for the research agenda in science education, the school science curriculum and the curriculum for teacher education in both preparing and supporting the professional development of science teachers.

Abstract:
This thesis comprises a series of inter-related studies that examined: (1) diagrams presented in commonly used biology textbooks in Western Australian schools; (2) teachers’ use of diagrams as part of their normal teaching routines; (3) students’ perceptions of how they learn about diagrams in their lessons; and (4) students’ use of text and diagrams in explaining two phenomena in biology that had not been presented in class.Phase one of the research reports the results of an analysis diagrams presented in biology textbooks used by Western Australian students to examine their distribution pattern. Three types of diagrams (iconic, schematic, and charts & graphs) were investigated in science education based on the work of Novick (2006). Therefore, content analysis in this research entailed a systematic reading and categorizing of these diagrams from a number of secondary school textbooks. The textbook types include lower secondary general science textbooks, upper secondary biology textbooks, and biology workbooks. Descriptive statistics were conducted in order to provide first-hand data on exploring how diagrams are used in biology books. Findings of the study suggest that the three types of diagrams are distributed with unique patterns in the secondary biology textbooks.Phase two reports the investigation of biology teachers’ use of diagrams in their classroom teaching. Biology teachers’ teaching was observed in order to determine instructional methods related to diagrammatic teaching and learning in the natural environment. This study described and analysed how teachers of biology use the three different types of diagrams to introduce, explain and evaluate abstract biology concepts.The third phase of the research reports an analysis of how students think about their teachers’ instructional strategies when teaching with diagrams. An instrument was developed from a previously existing instrument to help students reflect upon their use of diagrams during their teachers’ instruction. The questionnaire data indicated that most participant students recognised teachers’ instructional methods in teaching diagrammatic representations as being explanatory tools, in representing biological concepts, and in help assessing their learning. The three dimensions identified by the questionnaire (Instruction with diagram, Assessment with diagrams and Student diagrammatic competence), demonstrated that students’ perceived experienced biology teachers as being more skillful in having diagrams to engage their learning.Phase four investigated students’ conceptual learning of diagrams alongside other modes of representations. The purpose of this phase was to determine how the students interpreted diagrams together with their counterpart – text – when learning three different biology concepts using an interview protocol. In each interview, students were presented with a biological concept with diagrammatic representation (iconic, schematic diagrams, and charts & graphs) together with textual representation (such as written text and chemical equations). The chapter concludes by showing that diagram and text serve different functional roles in students’ conceptual learning when one or both representations are presented. The results showed that diagram and text may constrain, construct or complementary each other so as to help students understand the complex concept.The final chapter draws together and discusses the findings generated in all of the previous studies in which diagrams were used in various aspects of secondary biological education, such as textbooks, classroom instruction, students’ perceptions, and representational learning with text. The limitations of the research are discussed and suggestions made for future research on the instructional usage of diagrams in biological teaching and learning.

Abstract:
A review of literature concerning teaching-learning media and the factors that influence the choice of teaching-learning media was conducted, in order to establish which teaching-learning media teachers are using to present a lesson, especially in OBE. The classification of teaching-learning media by different media specialists was looked into, before it was applied in a Biology lesson. The plant cell and animal cell sketches were used as examples to draw up transparencies, overlay-transparencies and to build models. An empirical investigation was undertaken to investigate which teaching-learning media teachers are using and why they are using certain teaching-learning media. It also investigated the role teaching-learning media plays in presenting a lesson and what can be done to help teachers to use more effective teaching-learning media in teaching Biology as part of Natural Science in the senior phase of OBE. According to the investigation teachers seem to stay with the traditional teaching-learning media, such as the chalkboard and textbook, for they are easily available, user-friendly and cost saving. However, there is a need that more courses should be offered, where teachers can be trained how to use certain teaching-learning media and how to create their own teaching-learning media.

Abstract:
More so than any other science in the past several decades, Biology has seen an explosion of new information and monumental discoveries that have had a profound impact on much more than the science itself. Much of this has occurred at the molecular level. Many of these modern concepts, ideas, and technologies, as well as their historical context, can be easily understood and appreciated at the high school level. Moreover, it is argued here that the integration of this is critical for making biology relevant as a modern science. A contemporary high school biology curriculum should adequately reflect this newly acquired knowledge and how it has already has already begun to revolutionize medicine, agriculture, and the study of biology itself. This curriculum provides teachers with a detailed framework for integrating molecular biology into a high school biology curriculum. It is not intended to represent the curriculum for an entire academic year, but should be considered a significant component. In addition to examining key concepts and discoveries, it examines modern molecular techniques, their applications, and their relevance to science and beyond. It also provides several recommended labs and helpful protocols.

Abstract:
nÃo hÃ
O cotidiano dos alunos à permeado por uma infinidade de assuntos que despertam sua atenÃÃo, exigindo, por parte desses sujeitos, compreensÃo, argumentaÃÃo e tomada de atitudes em relaÃÃo Ãs questÃes envolvidas. A partir dessas concepÃÃes, a ideia de conhecimento e o significado de conceitos por parte dos sujeitos em formaÃÃo, estabelecem relaÃÃes diretas entre os conhecimentos cotidianos e cientÃficos. Nesse sentido, a possibilidade de um conhecimento construÃdo por meio do uso de analogias â sendo estas entendidas como instrumentos entre os conceitos a serem compreendidos e aqueles que jà temos incorporados â torna-se possÃvel. No presente trabalho, escolhemos investigar como os docentes formadores do Curso de Licenciatura em CiÃncias BiolÃgicas da FACEDI compreendem as analogias enquanto instrumento didÃtico de ensino, e como esses se manifestam acerca das potencialidades e da sua utilizaÃÃo no processo formativo de futuros educadores. Muitos estudos tÃm abordado esse tema direcionando o foco para o Ãmbito das escolas bÃsicas e, principalmente, nas CiÃncias, a Ãrea de fÃsica. O mÃtodo de estudo utilizado inseriu a pesquisa numa abordagem qualitativa, do tipo exploratÃria e descritiva, caracterizada como um Estudo de Caso. A coleta dos dados ocorreu no perÃodo de setembro/2012 a abril/2013 e utilizou como instrumentos a entrevista, a anÃlise documental e o levantamento bibliogrÃfico. O locus da pesquisa foi o Curso de Licenciatura em CiÃncias BiolÃgicas da FACEDI, e os sujeitos, docentes efetivos do referido curso. A anÃlise dos dados encontrados envolveu a leitura dos textos enviados pelos sujeitos e a transcriÃÃo de suas entrevistas. Os resultados mostraram que os docentes investigados consideraram a analogia como um instrumento didÃtico relevante nos processos de ensino e de aprendizagem na Ãrea da Biologia. O desconhecimento do conceito formal do tema foi evidenciado quando fizeram referÃncias Ãs analogias, considerando-as erroneamente como metÃforas e/ou exemplos. O uso instintivo pareceu refletir a incerteza dos investigados acerca dos conteÃdos teÃricos que fundamentam o tema das analogias. Assim, verificou-se entre os sujeitos da pesquisa um interesse nÃo apenas pelo uso das analogias na sala de aula, mas tambÃm pelo seu conhecimento de maneira aprofundada, sob o ponto de vista da academia, considerando questÃes teÃricas e metodolÃgicas, como se constituem seus aspectos conceituais e tipolÃgicos, suas possibilidades de uso e de avaliaÃÃo. Para esses docentes, a inserÃÃo do tema nos meios de ensino para a formaÃÃo de futuros professores à uma das possibilidades de tornar o assunto mais conhecido e significativo entre os futuros educadores. Considerou-se, portanto, nesta pesquisa, que a analogia à vista pelos sujeitos investigados, como um instrumento potencializador do ensino de Biologia, e que isso à utilizado de forma recorrente instintiva. AlÃm disso, suas concepÃÃes a respeito das potencialidades desse instrumento didÃtico estÃo, de fato, voltadas para a aceitaÃÃo do mesmo no processo de ensino e de aprendizagem, embora, equivocadamente, quanto à operacionalizaÃÃo dessas.
The quotidian of students is permeated by a multitude of subjects that arouse their attention by requiring understanding, reasoning and taking action on the issues involved. From these notions, the idea of knowledge and the meaning of concepts by individuals in formation, establish direct relations between everyday and scientific knowledge. In this sense, the possibility of knowledge constructed through the use of analogies - being defined as instruments between the concepts to be understood and those who have already built - becomes possible. In the present work, we chose to investigate how the teachers of the Course of Biological Sciences of FACEDI understand analogies as a didactic teaching tool, and how they express themselves about its potentialities and its use in the forming future educators. Many studies have addressed this issue by directing the focus to the scope of the basic schools, and among the Sciences, mainly in the area of physics. The method of study used a qualitative approach, as an exploratory and descriptive technique, characterized as a Case Study. Data collection occurred from September/2012 to April/2013 and used tools like interviews, document analysis and literature survey. The locus of the research was the College Course of Biological Sciences of FACEDI, and subjects were effective teachers of that course. Data analysis involved the reading of texts sent by the subjects and the transcript of their interviews. The results showed that teachers surveyed considered analogy as an important teaching tool in the teaching and learning processes in the field of Biology. The lack of formal concept of this theme was evidenced when they made references to analogies, mistakenly considering them as metaphors and / or examples. Instinctive use seemed to reflect the uncertainty of the investigated teachers about the theoretical content that underlie the subject of analogies. Among the subjects was found an interest not only for the use of analogies in the classroom, but also on their knowledge in a deeper way, from the point of view of academia, considering theoretical and methodological issues, as they are constituted, their conceptual and typological aspects, their possibilities for use and evaluation. For these teachers the inclusion of this topic in the education tools for the formation of future teachers is one of the ways of making the theme most known and important among future educators. Therefore , it was considered in this research that the analogy is seen by the subjects investigated , as a potentiator of teaching biology instrument, and that it is used recurrently and instinctively . And that their views about the potential of this teaching tool are indeed facing the acceptance of the same in the teaching process and learning , though mistakenly as the operationalization of the same.

Abstract:
This study of laboratory based instruction at higher secondary school level was an attempt to gain some insight into the effectiveness of three laboratory instruction methods: cooperative group instruction method, individualised instruction method and lecture demonstration method on biology achievement and retention. A Randomised subjects, Pre-test Post-test Comparative Methods Design was applied. Three groups of students from a year 11 class in Pakistan conducted experiments using the different laboratory instruction methods. Pre-tests, achievement tests after the experiments and retention tests one month later were administered. Results showed no significant difference between the groups on total achievement and retention, nor was there any significant difference on knowledge and comprehension test scores or skills performance. Future research investigating a similar problem is suggested

Abstract:
The present study analyzed the satisfaction level of first-year biology students exposed to two sorts of learning activities while taking an introductory course on quantitative methods. Using a handbook of practices in Quantitative Methods in Biology, first-year Biology students carried out different activities involving data collection, statistical analysis and construction of graphical models. At the end of the term, students were asked to contrast their learning activities with and without the use of virtual learning tools. Most students declared both approaches useful in their learning process, but preferred the production of their own data without the intervention of technology or virtual/computerized tools. The pattern of responses found in the survey, along with the wide array of situations a first-year biology student may well encounter in the future, suggest that learning experiences of biology majors should balance virtualization and empirical work “in the material world”.

Abstract:
This paper presents research on the use of an engineering-to-biology thesaurus in an engineering classroom as an aid to teaching biomimicry. The leap from engineering to biological science has posed a challenge. Engineers often struggle with how to best use the vast amount of biological information available from the natural world around them. Often there is a knowledge gap, and terminology takes different meanings. Generally, the time required to learn and become fluent in biology poses too large a hurdle. The engineering-to-biology thesaurus was designed to allow engineers without advanced biological knowledge to leverage nature’s ingenuity during engineering design. The three key goals of this thesaurus are to (1) lessen the burden when working with knowledge from the biological domain by providing a link between engineering and biological terminology; (2) assist designers with establishing connections between the two domains; and (3) to facilitate biologically-inspired design. In this paper, the results of a pilot study as well as a second study are presented. The pilot study was used to craft instructional materials involving the engineering-to-biology thesaurus. In the second study, sophomore engineering students enrolled in a design course were given a design task to complete using the thesaurus. The task focused on biomimetic concept development for their course project — designing a human-powered vehicle for a person with cerebral palsy. Results of the design task are presented.

Abstract:
This paper studies the concept related to E-learning and the Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) and their role in organizing future teachers’ terminological work by specialty. It is shown the creation and use of the VLE is a promising approach in qualitative restructuring of future specialists’ vocation training, a suitable complement rather than a complete replacement of traditional learning. The concept of VLE has been disclosed; its structure has been presented as a set of components, such as: the Data-based component, the Communication-based, the Management-and-Guiding ones, and the virtual environments. Some VLE’s potential contributions to the organization of terminological work of future biology teachers’ throughout a traditional classroom teaching, an independent work, and during the field practices has been considered. The content of professionally oriented e-courses “Botany with Basis of Geobotany” and “Latin. Botany Terminology” has been revealed; the ways of working with online definer (guide), with UkrBIN National Biodiversity Information Network, with mobile apps for determining the plant species, with digital virtual herbarium, with free software have been shown. The content of students’ activity in virtual biological laboratories and during virtual tours into natural environment has been demonstrated. The explanations about the potential of biological societies in social networks in view of students’ terminology work have been given. According to the results of empirical research, the expediency of using VLEs in the study of professional terminology by future biology teachers has been confirmed.

Abstract:
Higher education related to water is a critical component of capacity development necessary to support countries’ progress towards Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) overall, and towards the SDG6 water and sanitation goal in particular. Although the precise number is unknown, there are at least 28,000 higher education institutions in the world. The actual number is likely higher and constantly changing. Water education programmes are very diverse and complex and can include components of engineering, biology, chemistry, physics, hydrology, hydrogeology, ecology, geography, earth sciences, public health, sociology, law, and political sciences, to mention a few areas. In addition, various levels of qualifications are offered, ranging from certificate, diploma, baccalaureate, to the master’s and doctorate (or equivalent) levels. The percentage of universities offering programmes in ‘water’ ranges from 40% in the USA and Europe to 1% in subSaharan Africa. There are no specific data sets available for the extent or quality of teaching ‘water’ in universities. Consequently, insights on this have to be drawn or inferred from data sources on overall research and teaching excellence such as Scopus, the Shanghai Academic Ranking of World Universities, the Times Higher Education, the Ranking Web of Universities, the Our World in Data website and the UN Statistics Division data. Using a combination of measures of research excellence in water resources and related topics, and overall rankings of university teaching excellence, universities with representation in both categories were identified. Very few universities are represented in both categories. Countries that have at least three universities in the list of the top 50 include USA, Australia, China, UK, Netherlands and Canada. There are universities that have excellent reputations for both teaching excellence and for excellent and diverse research activities in water-related topics. They are mainly in the USA, Europe, Australia and China. Other universities scored well on research in water resources but did not in teaching excellence. The approach proposed in this report has potential to guide the development of comprehensive programmes in water. No specific comparative data on the quality of teaching in water-related topics has been identified. This report further shows the variety of pathways which most water education programmes are associated with or built in – through science, technology and engineering post-secondary and professional education systems. The multitude of possible institutions and pathways to acquire a qualification in water means that a better ‘roadmap’ is needed to chart the programmes. A global database with details on programme curricula, qualifications offered, duration, prerequisites, cost, transfer opportunities and other programme parameters would be ideal for this purpose, showing country-level, regional and global search capabilities. Cooperation between institutions in preparing or presenting water programmes is currently rather limited. Regional consortia of institutions may facilitate cooperation. A similar process could be used for technical and vocational education and training, although a more local approach would be better since conditions, regulations and technologies vary between relatively small areas. Finally, this report examines various factors affecting the future availability of water professionals. This includes the availability of suitable education and training programmes, choices that students make to pursue different areas of study, employment prospects, increasing gender equity, costs of education, and students’ and graduates’ mobility, especially between developing and developed countries. This report aims to inform and open a conversation with educators and administrators in higher education especially those engaged in water education or preparing to enter that field. It will also benefit students intending to enter the water resources field, professionals seeking an overview of educational activities for continuing education on water and government officials and politicians responsible for educational activities

Abstract:
Biology is a fairly complicated initial subject because it involves knowledge of biodiversity. Google Lens is a unique, mobile software that allows you to recognition species and genus of the plant student looking for. The article devoted to the analysis of the efficiency of the functioning of the Google Lens related to botanical objects. In order to perform the analysis, botanical objects were classified by type of the plant (grass, tree, bush) and by part of the plant (stem, flower, fruit) which is represented on the analyzed photo. It was shown that Google Lens correctly identified plant species in 92.6% cases. This is a quite high result, which allows recommending this program using during the teaching. The greatest accuracy of Google Lens was observed under analyzing trees and plants stems. The worst accuracy was characterized to Google Lens results of fruits and stems of the bushes recognizing. However, the accuracy was still high and Google Lens can help to provide the researches even in those cases. Google Lens wasn’t able to analyze the local endemic Ukrainian flora. It has been shown that the recognition efficiency depends more on the resolution of the photo than on the physical characteristics of the camera through which they are made. In the article shown the possibility of using the Google Lens in the educational process is a simple way to include principles of STEM-education and “New Ukrainian school” in classes.

Abstract:
The American Academy of Microbiology convened a colloquium September 5–7, 2003, in Charleston, South Carolina to discuss the central importance of microbes to life on earth, directions microbiology research will take in the 21st century, and ways to foster public literacy in this important field. Discussions centered on: the impact of microbes on the health of the planet and its inhabitants; the fundamental significance of microbiology to the study of all life forms; research challenges faced by microbiologists and the barriers to meeting those challenges; the need to integrate microbiology into school and university curricula; and public microbial literacy. This is an exciting time for microbiology. We are becoming increasingly aware that microbes are the basis of the biosphere. They are the ancestors of all living things and the support system for all other forms of life. Paradoxically, certain microbes pose a threat to human health and to the health of plants and animals. As the foundation of the biosphere and major determinants of human health, microbes claim a primary, fundamental role in life on earth. Hence, the study of microbes is pivotal to the study of all living things, and microbiology is essential for the study and understanding of all life on this planet. Microbiology research is changing rapidly. The field has been impacted by events that shape public perceptions of microbes, such as the emergence of globally significant diseases, threats of bioterrorism, increasing failure of formerly effective antibiotics and therapies to treat microbial diseases, and events that contaminate food on a large scale. Microbial research is taking advantage of the technological advancements that have opened new fields of inquiry, particularly in genomics. Basic areas of biological complexity, such as infectious diseases and the engineering of designer microbes for the benefit of society, are especially ripe areas for significant advancement. Overall, emphasis has increased in recent years on the evolution and ecology of microorganisms. Studies are focusing on the linkages between microbes and their phylogenetic origins and between microbes and their habitats. Increasingly, researchers are striving to join together the results of their work, moving to an integration of biological phenomena at all levels. While many areas of the microbiological sciences are ripe for exploration, microbiology must overcome a number of technological hurdles before it can fully accomplish its potential. We are at a unique time when the confluence of technological advances and the explosion of knowledge of microbial diversity will enable significant advances in microbiology, and in biology in general, over the next decade. To make the best progress, microbiology must reach across traditional departmental boundaries and integrate the expertise of scientists in other disciplines. Microbiologists are becoming increasingly aware of the need to harness the vast computing power available and apply it to better advantage in research. Current methods for curating research materials and data should be rethought and revamped. Finally, new facilities should be developed to house powerful research equipment and make it available, on a regional basis, to scientists who might otherwise lack access to the expensive tools of modern biology. It is not enough to accomplish cutting-edge research. We must also educate the children and college students of today, as they will be the researchers of tomorrow. Since microbiology provides exceptional teaching tools and is of pivotal importance to understanding biology, science education in schools should be refocused to include microbiology lessons and lab exercises. At the undergraduate level, a thorough knowledge of microbiology should be made a part of the core curriculum for life science majors. Since issues that deal with microbes have a direct bearing on the human condition, it is critical that the public-at-large become better grounded in the basics of microbiology. Public literacy campaigns must identify the issues to be conveyed and the best avenues for communicating those messages. Decision-makers at federal, state, local, and community levels should be made more aware of the ways that microbiology impacts human life and the ways school curricula could be improved to include valuable lessons in microbial science.
