    Sustainable Environment Education in Pre-School Pupils
    (Modestum LTD, 2018) Ozburak, C.; Batirbaygil, M.H.; Uzunoğlu, S.S.
    "Sustainable Environmental Education" at early ages is important for creating environmental awareness. When the content of current environmental education curriculums at schools in the North Cyprus is analyzed, it is seen that only the natural environment elements are covered. Whereas environment is divided into two that are natural and the built environment. Besides the recognition and protection of the natural environment, sustainable built elements play an important role. The aim of this study is to identify through measuring the deficiency of preschool children's level of awareness of "sustainable built environment". The study was administered to 134 five year-old preschool children at a private school in the city of Nicosia by using the qualitative approach. During the study, "Interviews" were arranged and 17 questions were asked to the children. The children's level of knowledge on "sustainable built environment" was measured through a pre-test. According to the results obtained, the children are familiar with natural elements such as the trees, animals and water around their environment but are not familiar with basic building elements or related sustainable systems such as wind turbine (25.37%), solar panels (13.43%) and green roof (8.20%). These results show us the the lack of "sustainable built environment education". © 2018 by the authors; licensee Modestum Ltd., UK.

    The Impact of Architectural Education on Children
    (Elsevier Science Bv, 2012) Cavdar, Rabia Cigdem
    Architectural education as a design education always encourages the creativity. The case studies realized with children shows that facing architecture in early ages when their brain has not formatted has a great potential both for architectural milieu and for consciousness of the children related to their surroundings. Being conscious in early age might bring an opportunity to shape more meaningful environments. For example, there is no need to be an architect to behave responsible with their environment; such as ecological problems, sustainability, traffic problems which are the tools for educating more responsible generations with their environment. They can perceive the world in different ways and constitute a conscious understanding of built environment. These meetings have double sided effect both on their mind and the milieu of architecture. This article will discuss mentioned thoughts above by means of workshops held abroad. (C) 2012 Published by Elsevier Ltd. Selection and/or peer review under responsibility of Prof. Ayse Cakir Ilhan
