Özet:

 An ecological citizen is a person who protects the rights of nature as well as his rights and takes responsibility. Increasing pollution and population in the last century have seriously damaged the environment and affected nature more negatively than ever. Raising ecological citizens is essential in minimizing this damage through the responsibilities they assume. The knowledge and perceptions of teacher candidates who will educate our future on this subject will directly serve the education of ecological citizens. In this context, the primary purpose of the research is to determine the meanings that prospective teachers attribute to the concept of ecological citizenship. In this context, the study was conducted with the phenomenology pattern, one of the qualitative research designs. The research participants comprised 15 teacher candidates studying at a university in Istanbul. Participants were determined using the easily accessible sampling method. Data were collected using a semi-structured interview form prepared by the researchers and analyzed with content analysis. According to the findings, the statements of the prospective teachers were explained within the framework of four themes. These themes include Who is an ecological citizen? The characteristics of an ecological citizen, the values that an ecological citizen should have, and the skills that an ecological citizen should have.

 Ekolojik vatandaş kendi haklarını koruduğu gibi doğanın haklarını da koruyan ve sorumluk alan kişidir. Son yüzyılda artan kirlilik ve nüfus çevreye ciddi oranda zarar vermiş ve doğayı hiç olmadığı kadar olumsuz etkilemiştir. Ekolojik vatandaşların yetiştirilmesi üstlendikleri sorumluklarla bu zararın en aza indirme adına önemlidir. Geleceğimizi yetiştirecek öğretmen adayların bu konu hakkında bilgileri ve algıları ise ekolojik vatandaşların yetişmesine doğrudan hizmet edecektir. Bu bağlamda araştırmanın temel amacı öğretmen adaylarının ekolojik vatandaşlık kavramına yükledikleri anlamların belirlenmesidir. Bu kapsamda çalışma nitel araştırma desenlerinden fenomenoloji deseni ile yürütülmüştür. Araştırmanın katılımcılarını, İstanbulda bir üniversitede öğrenim gören 15 öğretmen adayı oluşturmaktadır. Katılımcılar kolay ulaşılabilir örneklem belirleme metodu kullanılarak belirlenmiştir. Veriler araştırmacılar tarafından hazırlanan yarı yapılandırılmış görüşme formuyla toplanmış ve içerik analizi ile analiz edilmiştir. Elde edilen bulgulara göre öğretmen adaylarının ifadeleri dört tema çerçevesinde açıklanmıştır. Bu temalar, ekolojik vatandaş kimdir? ekolojik vatandaşın özellikleri, ekolojik vatandaşta bulunması gereken değerler ve ekolojik vatandaşta bulunması gereken beceriler olarak ifade edilmiştir.
