Best Biology Resources For Teachers

Science teachers, let’s get real for a minute: biology is an extensive subject. Covering all the living organisms that exist is in no way easy and probably involved hundreds of biology resources! Us at Teacherr recognise that. We 100% appreciate the effort you put in to simplify the subject for your students.

We, however, wish to take that appreciation to the next level. What if we not just thanked you, but simplified your teaching? Hence, we’ve compiled the five best bio resources available for FREE on the Internet (in no particular order of course). Enjoy!

Khan AcademyWhat makes Khan Academy‘s bio resources so awesome is how every lesson is explained through videos. Are you a kind of lazy person who learns best visually? Khan Academy is exactly the place you want to look for resources in!Examples of topics covered: ecology, plant biology, human biology, biochemistry

Target Board of Education: none in particular; focuses on the basics of every topic. (So, I guess you could say ALL boards of education then!)

Appropriate level: Grades VIII through XII

Highlights: videos (that you can show your students in class) and biology for CBSE class 10 (something they’re adding to every day!)

Bonus: they’ve got a few practice questions for each topic and subtopic. This gives you a great resource for you to use as a question bank for your students. Want to make a pop quiz or make sure they’re paying attention? Khan Academy has got you.

Biology Teaching and Learning ResourcesAre you a smart teacher? (Excuse the pun, haha!). Do you, dear teacher, enjoy teaching your class using technology (hence, the smart lol)? However, you find that making presentations is time-taking, exhausting and sometimes, not even worth it.

Make way for Biology Teaching and Learning Resources. The person behind this website has pre-designed presentations for several biology topics.Examples of topics covered: plants, animals, fungi and more!

Target Board of Education: IGCSE; but the basics included come under most boards of education

Appropriate level: Grades IX and X

Highlights: presentations, question bank and answers

Bonus: a thorough explanation of how to do most biology experiments – from basic ones like the test for starch, to looking for retinal capillaries

BioNinjaBased out of Australia, BioNinja is one of our personal favourites. It covers all the most important concepts of studying biology in higher grades. It’s still developing, so that means that it’s updated very often. That ensures that you always get the latest ways of presenting and learning biology.

Additionally, it explains the concepts in the simplest way possible. It incorporates all types of media – words, images, videos and graphs. This allows you to understand (thereby teach) a concept holistically.Examples of topics covered: cytology, genetics, evolution and so much more!

Target Board of Education: IB (Standard and Higher Levels); but the basics included come under most boards of education

Appropriate level: Grades XI and XII

Highlights: summary PDF’s, extra additional information that goes beyond the textbook (this should help you answer the higher-level questions your students ask)

Bonus: they have a BioNinja app too! Get all this awesome biology resource on your phone.http://teacherr.in/best-biology-resources-for-teachers/
