Abstract

The research problem was identified in the lack of development of Scientific Concepts of the Bioethics issues and Scientific Values ​​of the First grade Students due to the lack of biological curricula in dealing with issues related to Bioethics issues and their lack of interest in the development of Scientific Values ​​of the Secondary-Stage.
    This research aims at developing som scientific concepts and scientific values ​​of students in secondary school using a proposed program in scientific education in the light of biosafety. To achieve these goals, the proposed program, the teacher's guide and the student guide were prepared.
 To achieve this purpose, the Quasi Experimental Design was adopted in the design of one group with tribal and remote dimensions. The research experiment was applied to (39) students from the first grade of secondary school in Benoit secondary school. The statistical processing was done using the T test and Blake's equation. The results of the research on the effectiveness of the proposed program in the development some scientific concepts of the issues of bioethics and scientific values ​​of students in the first grade-secondary.
