A study of effects of biology instruction using ED[superscript 3]U model with computer simulation on science process skills and learning retention of higher secondary school students was a quasi-experimental research. The proposes of this research were to compare science process skills and learning retention of students after learning biology by using ED[superscript 3]U model with computer simulation and using traditional instruction. The samples were mathayom suksa four students of Phiriyalai School, Changwat Phrae at academic year 2007. They were divided into two groups: one with 44 students in experimental group which was learning biology by using ED[superscript 3]U model with computer simulation and the other with 46 students in comparative group which was learning biology by using traditional instruction. The research instruments were 1) a test on science process skills with reliability 0.83 and 2) a test on biology learning achievement with reliability 0.84. The collected data were analyzed by means of arithmetic mean, mean of percentage, standard deviation, one-way analysis of covariance and paired-sample t-test by using SPSS 16.0 for Windows. The research findings were summarized as follows: 1. After the experiment, an experimental group had mean score of science process skills statistically higher than comparative group at .05 level of significant. 2. An experimental group had mean score of biology learning achievement that tested after the experiment immediately and 2 weeks after the experiment were not statistically different at .05 level of significant. It meant students had the learning retention of biology.
