The diagram results show high walls from 78% of laboratories, 76% of the curriculum, 70% of methods, media, and evaluation, and 67% of teacher competence. Overall, the data collection results show that with high barriers, obstacles to implementing the biology learning process cover an average of 72%. The results of this study can be used as a reference for teachers in schools, especially biology to design learning activities that further stimulate students' creative processes. In addition, it is hoped that external education stakeholders in Indonesia will focus more on implementing better policies.Abstrak Hambatan dalam proses pembelajaran biologi berupa penerapan kurikulum, pengembangan silabus, kompetensi, penguasaan materi, metode pembelajaran, laboratorium, media pembelajaran, alat peraga, evaluasi pembelajaran, dan motivasi belajar.
