In this research paper, the environmental awareness of B.Ed. students in teacher-training colleges has been measured and the relationship between awareness and background variables has also been investigated. Since environmental awareness is related with the present day concern of our society, it is presumed that the study will be helpful in solving present day environmental problems. It was carried out on a sample of total 151 B.Ed. students (both boys and girls) selected through random sampling. To measure the environmental awareness of B.Ed. students, the researcher has used self-developed tool viz., a multiple-choice questionnaire. To know the results obtained from scores, statistical calculation of scores was done using Mean, Standard Deviation, Correlation Coefficient and t-Test. The findings which emerged from detailed data analysis and interpretation according to the research objectives and conclusions of the study were made keeping in mind the objectives of study.
