Abstract:
Education makes a person transform from living individual to thinking and behaving individual. For School Education, the National curriculum earlier included subjects like, languages, Mathematics, Science and social science. Science during primary schooling is to be studied as an integrated subject. At higher level, it becomes separated into Physics, Chemistry and Biology. Of these Biology was earlier studied as a descriptive subject and had no bearing on the society. It was considered as a secondary subject; however with the researches carried out in the middle of nineteenth century, with its coherence in natural sciences recognized, only then Biology gained importance in school education. The way Biology is being preferred by gradually less and less number of students was a matter of concern for the researchers. Using the regular class allocated for teaching with 50 students making a purposive sample, the possible cause/s around this fact were tried to be explored and one of them was focused through this action research to arrive at conclusion.
