Qualitative data from the principal interview, teacher’s questionnaire, and school’s documents showed that students learnt about global and local environmental topics (Pine Forest) in Languages, Biology, Chemistry, Social Studies, Sociology, and Economics. Quantitative results from students’ pre and post assessments showed that environmental education program had a positive and significant impact. Students improved their environmental knowledge and skills and reinforced their positive attitudes and behavior. Findings suggested that further longitudinal studies are important to sustain the positive influence of environmental programs on students’ ecological awareness, skills, and attitudes in the secondary, intermediate, and elementary classes UR - https://librarycatalog.lau.edu.lb/olib9?infile=details.glu&loid=701019&rs=420585&hitno=1 ER -
