Volume : II, Issue : VI, July - 2012 Effectiveness Of Concept Mapping In Teaching Environmental Education SubjectIndumati T. Bharambe Published By : Laxmi Book Publication Abstract : In present study research aimed to study the effectiveness of concept mapping in teaching
Environmental Education. For the study, 71 M. Ed. Student teachers were selected from
Jalgaon city. 'Randomised Control Group Pre-test Post-test Design' was used. The
content sample 'Environmental Education and Pollution' was selected. It includes
concept of environmental education, pollution, types of pollution, causes and effects of
pollution. The achievement test of 40 marks was prepared on this content. Before
teaching, the achievement test was administered to two randomly selected groups of M.
Ed. Student teachers as pre-test. The experimental group was taught by using concept
mapping strategy and controlled group was taught without using concept mapping
strategy for two weeks the same content. For actual teaching to experimental group,
concept map of each sub point was prepared. Keywords : Article : Cite This Article : Indumati T. Bharambe, (2012). Effectiveness Of Concept Mapping In Teaching Environmental Education Subject.
