Abstract

        The research aims to identify the extent to which contemporary international standards are included in intermediate biology textbooks from the perspective of their teachers. The researcher used a descriptive approach, which is consistent with the research objective. The research community consisted of (96) intermediate biology teachers in intermediate schools affiliated with the Wasit Governorate Education Directorate and in the education departments of the Suwayrah and Aziziyah districts. A random sample of (24) teachers was selected. The researcher prepared the research tool, a contemporary international standards questionnaire, which consisted of (34) paragraphs distributed across four areas (objectives, content, activities, and questions). After applying the questionnaire to the research sample, the results were extracted using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS). The results indicated that the inclusion of contemporary international standards in intermediate biology textbooks was moderate. The researcher recommended that curriculum developers pay attention to contemporary international standards and keep pace with scientific and cognitive development, including them in curricula, and providing all the necessary tools, equipment, and laboratory equipment that would assist in implementing activities and practical experiments, which would positively impact the development of skills.
