Abstract

The SERASI program is one of the efforts to implement environmental education among school students in the state of Sabah, Malaysia. The SERASI program aims to create a society that always cares about the environment. SERASI is also a centre of learning and teaching that can influence schools and communities toward sustainable development. Hence, this study was conducted to assess the level of environmental knowledge, the students' sources of environmental knowledge and their knowledge about the types of pollution in their surroundings. Stratified random sampling was conducted to obtain data from secondary form four students. Three hundred eighty-five (385) sets of questionnaires were collected for this study and analyzed using descriptive statistical methods. The results showed that the environmental knowledge among the form four students of SERASI was moderate. The student's sources of knowledge were through the SERASI program and the internet. The type of pollution widely noted by students was the waste issue.
