The purposes of this study is to reveal the environmental consciousness of children and students in elementary and junior high schools after implementation of the Environmental Education Act in Taiwan (2011). We carried out questionnaire surveys and interviews at nine elementary schools and five junior high schools in Miaoli County, and analyzed the children’s environmental consciousness utilizing cross-tabulation and quantification theory.
The results are follows: (1) The more children and students are interested in some environmental problems, the more they understand them. (2) At the elementary school level, the teachers’ attitudes to environmental education and their estimation of its meaning affect the students’ environmental consciousness. (3) We also found that the accumulation of learning experience in environmental education makes students more interested in environmental issues and more active to participate in related activities. (4) Children’s and students’ broad understanding of environmental problems affects their pro-environmental behavior.
