Özet
Today, environmental problems are gathered at four main points. 1) the destruction of the ecological balance, destruction of the natural order to completely disrupt the balances, 2) the waste of natural resources, 3) not struggling to eliminate natural disaster, 4) the insufficient use of renewable energy sources. Scientists have serious discoveries and worries that the world cannot solve environmental problems, especially global warming, and that the world will become a planet of disasters within this century. The only way to solve the problems that humans have is the most intelligent being on the planet is science. Informing and raising awareness happens through education. If we want to leave a livable world to future generations, we must educate everybody in this matter, especially children. It is in this point that the teachers who realize these trainings have environmental awareness. The study was carried out with a total of 532 students randomly selected from all departments of Trakya University Faculty of Education and Pedagogical Formation program students during the fall semester of 2016-2017. Environmental Awareness Scale prepared by the researcher was used as data collection tool. The scale consists of 71 items with a rating of 4. For each sub-scale, the internal consistency was determined by calculating the item-total correlation coefficient and the internal consistency was calculated by calculating the total correlation coefficient excluding item. In the same way, t-test between the upper quartile and the lower quartile was applied to detect the discrimination power of the items. For the scale and sub-scales, the reliability was determined by calculating the Cronbach and Rulon coefficients. It was determined that the scale consisting of 3 factors was valid, reliable and usable after statistical procedures. A questionnaire consisting of 19 questions prepared by the researcher was used to collect data about the independent variables of the research. The questionnaire contains questions about nature love as well as demographic characteristics such as gender and age.The statistical analysis of data featured t test, variance analysis and LSD methods for Post hoc analysis to determine the source of variation.
