Abstract

A questionnaire related to environmental awareness was administered to 244 students enrolled in NR 101, Introduction to Natural Resources, during the Spring Quarter of 1979 in an attempt to answer the following questions: (1) To what extent will viewing a slide-tape presentation alter student responses on a questionnaire? (2) To what extent will the responses of the students viewing a slide-tape presentation differ from a control treatments result in significant differences in responses when compared to a control group?Results of this research indicate the treatments did alter the students' responses on one factor. The responses were altered towards an environmentally aware position and there were significant differences between treatment group responses when compared to the control group.Ball State UniversityMuncie, IN 47306
