ABSTRACT
This study assessed the availability and adequacy of audio-visual resources in teaching biology education in University of Abuja. Three research questions were formulated to guide the study. The research design adopted for the study was a descriptive survey design. The sample of the study constituted of 80 respondents. Questionnaire was used to gather data while table, mean, percentage were used to analyse the data. The study revealed that, students find a particular topic interesting when taught with the available audio-visual resources and there are adequate audio-visual resources in teaching of biology education. It was recommended that government should try and provide the university with adequate audio-visual resources and students should put more effort in learning biology education.
