This study investigated the effects of Case-based and experiential learning strategies on student’s attitude to Biology in Ekiti State Secondary School Nigeria. One research question was raised and four hypotheses were generated. The study adopted a quasi-experimental research design. The population for the study was 12,508 Senior Secondary School two students in Ekiti State and the sample consisted of 152 Students who were selected using multistage sampling procedure. One research instrument was used for the study. Biology attitudinal Scale (BAS) was used to test the attitude of students. The validity of the instrument was established through face and content validity. Cronbach’s alpha method was used to establish the reliability of the Instrument (BAS), which was used to compare the variance of one item with variance of other item. The data obtained were analyzed using descriptive analysis (mean and standard deviation) and inferential statistic (t-test) at 0.05 level of significant. The results of the findings revealed that no significant difference in the attitude of students in the experimental and control groups toward respectively in Biology before treatment. It was also revealed that the interaction effect of treatment and gender significantly influenced the attitude of students towards Biology, with male students achieving higher mean scores. Again, one of the findings of the study showed that there is no significant difference in the effects of case-based, experiential learning and conventional strategies respectively on the attitude of students to Biology. Based on the findings it’s recommended that government should organize seminars for teachers on the use of more than one teaching strategies in teaching and learning process.
