Produktbeschreibung
This study explores attitudes in biology classes of
Japanese junior high school and high school students.
It is argued that the aim of teaching biology is in
producing educated students who can understand the
importance of the role of biology in their society
and can make judgements or decisions based on
biological views. This study discusses definitions of
attitude and is based on one approach in the
literature. It would be helpful to understand what
causes attitudes to develop and why students behave
positively or negatively in biology classes. The
survey was carried out with two different groups:
Shotoku gakuen High School and Meiji daigaku huzoku
nakano hachioji High School(1270 students in total)
using a questionnaire. In general, attitudes toward
learning biology decline with age, and boys and girls
tend to have different interests. The study offers
proposals for future research and implications for
teaching in Japan.
