We teachers generally require students to make reports in case we cannot give examinations for some reasons. I describe herein a way to take advantage of obligatory report-work for the purpose of; 1) encouraging students to have preliminary knowledge of biology, and 2) giving a more effective lecture on the basis of students' preparation. For the sake of convenience, the former and latter subjects are referred to as type I and II reports, respectively. The type I subjects include problems that are not solved without penetrating into deep biological implications of bodily structures and functions. The results of the reports are reviewed and criticized afterward in combination with the focus of lectures. Whereas the type II subjects, which are not directly related with lectures, concern the life of a great scientist such as Louis Pasteur. Preparation for both the types of reports may be superior to that for a lesson done on a fixed textbook because it seems less boring for students.
