Investigation of the Relationship between Primary School Teachers' Environmental Awareness and Sustainable Environmental Attitudes

Abstract

In this study, it was aimed to determine the relationship between primary school teachers' environmental awareness and their attitudes towards sustainable environment. The study was based on the relational survey model, one of the quantitative research methods. The study group was determined by maximum diversity sampling method from purposeful sampling methods and 350 primary school teachers working in the 2023-2024 academic year were included in the study. The data were collected with the Personal Information Form, Environmental Awareness Teacher Qualities Scale and Sustainable Environment Attitude Scale. SPSS 25.0 program was used to analyse the research data. As a result of the research, it was concluded that primary school teachers have a high level of environmental awareness and sustainable environmental attitudes, and that there is no significant difference between primary school teachers' environmental awareness and sustainable environmental attitudes according to gender and professional seniority variables. It was concluded that primary school teachers have a high level of environmental awareness and sustainable environmental attitudes. However, it was concluded that there was a significant difference between the average sustainable environmental attitude scores of primary school teachers according to the professional seniority variable. In addition, it was concluded that there was a significant positive relationship between the average scores of having environmental awareness and the average scores of sustainable environmental attitudes of primary school teachers. Likewise, it was concluded that there was a significant positive relationship between the mean scores of the sub-factors of having environmental awareness and the mean scores of the sub-factors of sustainable environmental attitude. Based on the findings of the study, it is recommended that cooperation among teachers and social activities be encouraged to raise environmental awareness, and that cooperation with various organizations and civil society organizations in the context of environmental education be promoted. It is also recommended that these activities be implemented in schools and classrooms to contribute to the development of primary school teachers' environmental awareness and attitudes.
