Abstract
The present study was designed to experiment the effect of self instructional module on environmental education on level of awareness of prospective teachers. Environmental Education is a way of implementing the goals of environmental protection. National Policy on Education (1986) has also stressed the need to create a consciousness of environment in order to reduce and prevent the present and future environmental imbalances. The teacher acts as a change agent in the society. If the teacher is aware of environmental problems and their consequences, he is able to generate awareness among the young generation who are the future of any country. For this very purpose, a self instructional module on environmental education has been developed and empirically validated and also has been administered on the selected sample of 30 prospective teachers. The findings suggested that self instructional module was sufficiently effective. It was found that self instructional module has significant effect on awareness level of prospective teachers. The self instructional module has implications for students, parents, teachers, administrators and policy makers.
