Determination of Teacher Candidates’ Awareness of Environmental Ethics

Abstract

The aim of this study is to determine the awareness levels of teacher candidates about environmental ethics. A survey model from quantitative research methods was used to determine the environmental ethics awareness levels of teacher candidates. An environmental ethics awareness scale was used as the data collection tool, and the working group of the study consisted of all teacher candidates studying in the Faculty of Education of a state university in the Western Black Sea region of Turkey. The data collected were analyzed in terms of statistical methods, including arithmetic means, standard deviations, the Kruskal Wallis H test, and the Mann Whitney U test. According to the findings of the study, environmental ethics awareness levels of teacher candidates were higher than average. Furthermore, there were no differences for gender, maternal education, paternal education, high school graduated from, department of study, monthly income of the family, class level, or residence of the student prior to university.
