Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the value of a nature education project on the awareness and attitudes of middle school students toward Cultural Heritage. The research was based on an experimental model and the sample consisted of twentyfour middle school students. There were some selection criteria as they must have participated in a science fair before, and also have high academic achievement, high communication skills, etc. They participated in a nature education project with the theme of cultural heritage, which lasted for a week and was held with accommodation. The data were collected with the help of an achievement test and an attitude scale prepared for cultural heritage issues. They completed both measurement tools twice, the pretest on the first day and the posttest the three months after the project. The data were analyzed with appropriate methods in a computer-assisted data analysis program. These data revealed that the implemented nature education project greatly increased the achievement and attitude of the students towards cultural heritage issues. However, critical recommendations were made for the sustainability of the measured effect.
