- Abstract
Learning about the environment become prominent in dealing with natural phenomena that occur nowadays. Studying environmental physics will lead students to have a desire noticed on particular phenomenon or ecological issues (receiving), participating actively as part of behavior (responding), involves determining the value of attitude or commitment (valuing), classify between positive attitude and negative attitude, and action collaboratively, and has a character who care about the environment (creating or characterizing). This research aimed at describing the attitude toward ecological issues. A validated questionnaire was given to 37 students who already programmed the environmental physics, as an elective course at physics education department to see the student's attitudes competence toward ecological phenomena. By the qualitative research approach, the research shows the percentage positive attitudes less than the negative attitudes.The results obtained at the interview give guidance to suppose that this result was due to the teaching model at the environmental physics course.
