Environmental Awareness, Practices and Attitudes among Grade 7 Students Towards a Proposed Intervention Plan in Corazon C. Aquino High School

Abstract

This study was conducted to determine the level of awareness (refers on how the respondents are well informed about the status of the environment), attitudes (refers on how often the respondents follow the ways in improving, preserving and maintaining the environment’s health and practices (refers on how often the respondents treat the environment using different attitudes) of grade 7 students. The respondents were 267 randomly selected grade 7 students from Corazon C. Aquino High School. The data gathered were treated statistically, analyzed and interpreted. In determining the level of their awareness, attitude and practices, a researchers-made questionnaire was used as the main instrument. There were ten (10) indicators in every environmental level of awareness, attitude and practices. The researchers designed an intervention plan which focused on the problems and needs of the grade 7 students to further improve and maintain their level of environmental awareness, attitudes and practices.
