Abstract

This is a report upon the formal training of secondary school biology teachers, as set forth in replies to the questionnaire circulated by the Committee on the Teaching of Biological Science, of the Union of American Biological Societies, in 1939-1940. Some of the findings have already been outlined by Dr. Oscar Riddle' in an earlier statement. The figures hereinafter cited represent a total of 3,186 teachers,2 but in interpreting the data, it must be remembered that not all individuals responded to every item. This fact accounts for various apparent discrepancies which appear. Moreover, it should be made clear that there is some duplication among figures, because certain classification categories overlap.
