Abstract

In order to identify teaching problems and student motivational factors, and to determine which environmental topics of study are perceived to be of greatest importance for grades 4-12, the Iowa Conservation Education Center (CEC) conducted a survey of Iowa science teachers. The results of this survey should be helpful to teachers planning environmental activities or field trips. The information will also aid various organizations in their efforts to improve services for student groups and teacher workshops.
