Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of ‘stag raising’ program on elementary school students’ science process skills and nature-friendly attitude. Also we surveyed student’s opinion about this program. This program was developed for a total of 15 sessions. The developed program was applied on one class of 2nd grade in J elementary school located in J-city. ‘Stag raising’ program was divided into two steps. First step is preparing for raising stag. In this step, students surveyed stag using internet and talked about how to raise animal. Second step is raising stag. In this step students wrote nature journal and made good environment for stag. The results of study showed significant differences of the students’ science process skills to the experimental group participating in this program except for classification domain. And the experimental group in the program also showed significant differences in nature-friendly attitude. This means that ‘stag raising’ program developed under consideration of the characteristics of elementary school students positively influenced on science process skills and nature-friendly attitude. In the future, we need to develop raising animal and nature journal program more variously that it needs to be applied to elementary schools.
