Aim of study: Therefore, it is necessary to conduct a survey on student satisfaction with online learning of biology curriculum. Materials and Methods: The survey involved 855 online biology students. Results: The survey involved 855 online biology students. The satisfaction of all students (n=855) who participated in the survey was divided into two groups of questions with an average score of 4.3±0.46, or 86.3% (n=737) of all students who received an “Excellent” or “Good”. Conclusion: While face to face or classroom learning of biological lessons create clear and positive relationships with students during classroom teaching but during online learning teachers spend more time preparing for the practical lesson of biology during online learning, maintain better communication with students, and educate students in innovative ways of learning that the teacher requires.
