Abstract
This study aims to examine and compare the 6th grade students’ perception of environmental issues through different techniques.  For this purpose, we have tried to establish the students' perception of environmental issues by studying the pictures they drew and the written texts they wrote.  In this study, where we have conducted with 62 students in two different secondary schools in Duzce central during the 1st semester of the 2014-2015 academic year, we have employed a phenomenological pattern.  The obtained data has been analyzed using content analysis method.  As a result of the study, the themes of air pollution, water pollution, soil pollution, visual pollution, endangerment of species, noise pollution, natural disasters, biological pollution and radioactive pollution in the students’ perception of environmental issues have been identified.  When the themes of environmental problems, obtained through two different techniques, have been compared, it has been established that the number of themes expressed in the written texts were higher than the ones in the pictures.
