A Web-Based Environmental Education System for Elementary School Students

This research is to develop education systems that are designed to build students' attitude and habit of environmental preservation through acquiring knowledge and functions of natural environment. These systems support diverse learning activities such as writing, drawing, listening natural sounds and music, and problem solving. These systems are technically designed on the Web to promote students' creativity and autonomy, and also are theoretically based on constructivism to encourage the will of environmental preservation. Moreover, these Web-base systems include diverse functions such as material resources, environmental quiz pool and environmental work gallery, which motivate students' learning activities. These Web-based systems are expected to be used as effective tools to achieve the goals of environmental education such as acquiring environmental knowledge and functions, building attitude of environmental preservation, and participating in the environmental preservation activities.
