Özet

Öz In parallel with the rapid increase of environmental problems today, discussions about the effect of this on our daily lives and how to prevent problems have become a priority issue in many countries. In our country, especially in Science Curriculums of 2013 and afterwards, raising science literate individuals with high environmental awareness and sustainable development awareness is among the important topics. The aim of the study carried out in this context is to examine the effects of the out-of-school nature education science camp on the attitudes and perceptions of middle school students towards the environment. One-group experimental design was used in the study. The study was carried out with 28 students in the 6th and 7th grade studying in different public secondary schools in the Aegean Region. The study was carried out with the same study group as a ten-day nature education science camp in total, five days in two separate periods. During the study process, theoretical and applied field trainings on basic science subjects and nature art activities were given to the students by field experts. In the study, data were collected with the attitude scale towards the environment and the perception scale towards the environment. Data were collected before, during and after the experimental application of this study. As a result of the analysis of the data collected, it was determined that students' attitudes towards the environment and their perceptions towards the environment improved after experimental application. In this context, it can be said that the nature education science camp is an effective learning method in developing students' attitudes and perceptions towards the environment.
