"Environmental Affect Scale" and "Environmental Behavior Scale" were used, and semi-structured interviews were conducted. Results showed that out-of-school activities positively affected the students' affective and behavioral tendencies toward the environment. It was also found that the awareness of students on environmental problems increased, and they began to produce their solutions to these problems.
