| contents | Contact with nature: effects of field trips on pro-environmental knowledge, intentions and attitudes Zysman Neiman César Ades Educación PETAR Field trip Exposure to natural Environmental education The effects of direct contact with nature on pro-environmental attitudes, values and knowl-edge were assessed by taking college students on field trips at Parque Estadual Turístico do Alto Ribeira(PETAR), and applying a system of directed activities developed throughout 16 years. The changesin knowledge, values and attitudes were evaluated in these students (experimental groups) and otherstudents who were not exposed to the field trips (control groups) through questionnaires which wereapplied before (pre-tests) and after the trip (post-tests). Meaningful differences were verified between thecontrol and the experimental groups, as well as discrepancies between the pre- and post-tests applied tothe experimental groups - a clear indication that the direct contact with nature affected the positioningof the students towards environmental matters. These outcomes reinforce the idea of the importanceof contact with nature as a way of implementing pro-environmental behaviors. 2014 artículo científico 1516-7313 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=251032706008 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=2510 Ciência & Educação (Bauru) application/pdf Universidade Estadual Paulista Júlio de Mesquita Filho Ciência & Educação (Bauru) (Brasil) Num.4 Vol.20 |
