dc.description.abstractIn this study, we endeavored to find out the views of biology teachers on the problems associated with the teaching of biology in secondary schools within Kwara State, Nigeria. Two hundred and seventy biology teachers took part in the study. We designed a questionnaire for data gathering and employed the chi–square statistical technique to test the four hypotheses generated in the study. Findings from this study revealed that biology teachers in public and private schools, experienced and less experienced, as well as male and female biology teachers do not differ significantly on their views on problems associated with the teaching of biology. We categorized the identified problems into student, teacher, school facility and administrative related factors. We advocated for the inclusion of all the topics in the secondary school biology curriculum in the training programme for biology teachers. We are equally of the view that biology teachers must be equipped with job-related stress-coping skills.en_US
