Abstract
The purpose of this
study is to investigate the perceptions of students in 6th, 7th and 8th grades
about environmental problems based on their drawings. This study was conducted as a
phenomenological study and the criterion sampling method was used in this study
to select the participants. The study was carried out with the participation of
a total of 211 students. The data were collected through the students’ drawings
and their written evaluations of their drawings. The data were collected during
the spring semester of 2012-2013 academic year and analyzed using content
analysis technique. The students drew more pictures about local environmental
problems than global ones. Among local environmental problems, the students
drew pictures about air pollution most.

Abstract
Bu araştırmada 6., 7.
ve 8. sınıf öğrencilerinin çevre
sorunlarına ilişkin algılarını yaptıkları resimler aracılığıyla incelemek
amaçlanmıştır. Araştırmada olgubilim deseni kullanılmış ve katılımcılar ölçüt
örnekleme stratejisi kullanılarak belirlenmiştir. Araştırma verileri 211
öğrencinin çevre sorunlarına ilişkin çizdikleri resimler ve yaptıkları
resimleri yazılı olarak açıklamaları istenen açık uçlu soru aracılığıyla
toplanmıştır. Elde edilen verilen çözümlenmesinde içerik analizi tekniği
kullanılmıştır. Öğrenci resimlerinin daha çok yerel çevre sorunları ile ilgili
olduğu; küresel çevre sorunlarının ise öğrenciler tarafından daha az
resmedildiği saptanmıştır. Yerel çevre sorunları ile ilgili olarak öğrencilerin
resimlerinde özellikle hava kirliliği sorununa yer verdikleri bulunmuştur.
