PROBLEMS AND SOLUTIONS IN THE TEACHING OF BIOLOGY THROUGH PRACTICAL WORK

Abstract. In biology teaching, the focus should be on developing skills rather than memorizing information. The use of practical work helps foster students' creativity and potential. In some topics, Information and Communication Technology (ICT) is used for conducting practical activities. Unfortunately, some schools still lack the ne-cessary ICT tools, which affects the quality of biology lessons. Another issue is the lack of additional time for practical work during lessons. As a result, there is often insufficient time to complete certain practical activities within a single lesson. To address these issues, several steps need to be taken. One of these is the teacher's choice of method. The application of case-based technologies, which incorporate va-rious practical techniques, methods, and approaches, can also be used to perform many practical tasks effectively.
