ITT – Being one of the most important subjects of sciences but Biology in English is not focused comparing to Math, Physics, Chemistry and Economics. You must be wondering why, so what are the reasons?
Biology, one of the most important and basic sciences subjects, can help students understand the operation of nature, cells, organic elements, plants’ photosynthesis, animals’ metabolism and the relationships of all organisms.
Currently, the English integrated programs for various subjects are being implemented but there has not been much efficiency. Among the subjects, there is Biology in English which is difficult and complicated as it has a lot of academic and specialized English terms.
The ability to learn in English of students is a big problem to teachers. Moreover, students have always been assuming that Biology in English is not a main subject which does not have many exercises so there is no need to focus on. However, it is a wrong perception as this subject is compulsory in pharmaceutical, biotechnology or food technology major at many universities. There are a few students realize that Biology international programs can help them see problem in a global perspective, understand broader and deeper topics and they bring high quality education training and preparing fully for university level and adulthood.
Hence, to avoid students underestimating the subject and studying it with difficulties, teachers are required to have high level of specialized English as well as teaching techniques. Teachers need to point out the importance of the subject and career orient students so that they can catch up. However, in reality, there are few teachers who meet these qualifications.
As we can see that there are various obstacles in learning English integrated programs of sciences so Biology is not focused. Despite that fact, the important role of the subject in determining the development of a country has made it necessary to focus more on Biology. Biology classes need to be carefully organized and fully equipped for experiments, thereby students can have more interest and more informed perspective on the subject.
