Abstract

Abstract This study explores the impact of an action-oriented environmental education course on students’ environmental awareness, with 53 college students divided into experimental (N = 27) and control (N = 26) groups. Both groups participated in similar learning activities; however, the experimental group further recorded the amount of waste discharged into the environment by people around them for one and a half months (2 days/week). Students in the experimental group showed a significant difference in six of seven environmental awareness dimensions after this course. These results confirm that an action-oriented environmental education course has a positive effect on changing an individual’s awareness of the environment.

行动导向的环境教育课程对学生环境意识的影响

摘要本研究以53名大学生为研究对象，分为实验组(N = 27)和对照组(N = 26)，探讨以行动为导向的环境教育课程对学生环境意识的影响。两组都参加了类似的学习活动;而实验组则进一步记录了一个半月(2天/周)周围人排放到环境中的废物量。经过这门课程的学习，实验组学生在7个环境意识维度中的6个方面表现出了显著的差异。这些结果证实了以行动为导向的环境教育课程对改变个人的环境意识有积极的作用。
