abstract={The problems in educational field are not new, many educators and researchers are continually seeking ways and effective approaches to increase student achievement and outcomes. The biology education is however a crucial problem that needs to be solved, the problems in science education are amplified where educational and teaching approach plays critical role. In this paper, cooperative learning approach has been utilized to solve the problem of cell biology teaching, because it motivates students in ways that traditional approach does not. The cooperative learning provides an opportunity to students to enhance communication, social, critical thinking and problem-solving skills. The reason this approach is suitable for effective teaching is that it provides active learning roles to students, rather than traditional learning where students have passive-learner role to fulfill. A step-by-step implementation plan for cooperative learning in cell biology teaching has been presented in this excerpt which is beneficial for teachers and educational leaders in the field of science.},
