Abstract
This study examines the effect of environmental conservation education using a consciousness survey involving college students during their field practice. Moreover, it develops knowledge and techniques for the conservation of biodiversity. The results observed during the field practice indicate that the students were interested in the conservation of the environment. This interest could be posited as the first step toward future education and job training involving environmental conservation. To encourage and motivate students toward learning, it was necessary to effectively set up schedules and to have the course taught by professional lecturers. It was also important that the field practice had a specific level of difficulty and specialty to ensure the students’continued interest. These findings indicated the importance of conducting the program along with each program, review, and relevant practice.
