Linking motivation and learning is central to understanding students’ toward itself as complex cognitive phenomena. Some studies focused on biology in general; however, the shortage of effect animation-based instruction small-group laboratory activities Resource-based Instructions (RBIs) pre-service teachers was realized. The present study aimed determine resource-based teachers’ academic at private public Universities Rwanda. Pre-service were grouped into three groups a teacher traning University received pre-and post-assessment. Quasi-experimental, pre post-test control group design used university, while repeated measures university. standard scale for (AMSLB) yielded Cronbach alpha coefficient 0.71 before use. t-Test computed measure statistically significant difference between post-assessment scores RBI interventions.

Therefore, recommends using improve biology.
