Measuring the Environmental Attitudes of Sixth Graders Before and After an Outdoor Education Experience

Languages : en
Pages : 71
Book Description
The purpose of this applied project was two-fold. One goal of this research was to further the collective knowledge of environmental attitude formation and change. This study aimed to determine if participation in an outdoor education program at White Pines Ranch had any effect on a student’s attitude toward the environment. To measure attitudes, about 100 sixth graders were asked to complete Malkus’ (1992) Adults’ Attitudes Toward the Environment Scale (AATES) before and after completing a residential outdoor education program at White Pines Ranch. The second goal of this research was to satisfy the expressed need of the program directors at White Pines Ranch to get feedback on certain aspects of the program. The teachers and administrators accompanying the students completed a survey that asked about the overall outdoor education experience as well as students’ responses to the program. Many researchers have studied the environmental attitudes of children but none have studied their specific relationship to outdoor education programs.

Pages : 126
Book Description
This quantitative study investigated the impact of environmental learning programs on the environmental worldview (attitudes, beliefs, and values) of secondary school aged students. In order to research the effect that environmental learning programs have on the environmental orientation of individuals, 41 high school students who were currently taking an A.P. Environmental Science class were given New Ecological Paradigm (NEP) survey which is designed to measure the student's environmental orientation. The data was analyzed using a 95% confidence t-interval, which allowed the researcher to collect data from a sample population and apply the statistical analysis of the results to the larger population of which the sample came from. The population to which this particular sample came from would be the entire population of secondary students who have taken a semester-long environmental science course. The results supported the research hypothesis that students who participate in environmental learning programs during the course of their secondary education will have a proenvironmental worldview (attitudes, beliefs, and values). However, in order to determine the extent to which the results support the hypothesis further research is needed.
