有限的世界化石燃料储量和对这些储量将很快耗尽的预期，使可再生能源日益受到重视。因此，对职前教师进行有关可再生能源和资源的教育是至关重要的，因为他们将培养未来几代学生。为此，Morgil et al.[1]编制的39分问卷对土耳其黑海地区一所大学基础科学教学专业共240名（一、二、三、四年级各60名）职前教师进行了可再生能源主题意识调查。本研究得出结论，职前教师对可再生能源的认知在性别上不存在显著差异[t(238)= 0.789,p >.05]，但在学习年限上存在差异[F(3236)= 16.376,p< 0.05]。一项基于职前教师学习年限的分析发现，在可再生能源意识方面，三年级学生与一年级学生（p= .000）、二年级学生（p= .000）、四年级学生（p= .015）以及四年级学生与一年级学生（p= .002）的差异有统计学意义（p< .05）。
Limited world fossil fuel reserves and the expectation that these reserves will soon be depleted, place increased importance on renewable energy resources. Therefore, it is highly critical to educate pre-service teachers, who will be bringing up future generations of school children, about renewable energy and resources. To that end, a 39 point questionnaire developed by Morgil et al. [1] have been applied to a total of 240 pre-service teachers (60 pre-service teachers each in first, second, third and fourth years) majoring in Elementary Science Teaching at a university in the Black Sea Region of Turkey, and their awareness of renewable energy topics were determined. The study has concluded that while no gender-based meaningful differences exist with respect to the awareness of pre-service teachers for renewable energy [t(238)= 0.789,p> .05], there are differences based on year-of-study [F(3,236)= 16.376,p< .05]. An analysis based on pre-service teachers' years of study has resulted in statistically meaningful (p< .05) differences being found, with respect to awareness for renewable energy, upon comparing third year students with first (p= .000), second (p= .000) and fourth (p= .015) year students, and upon comparing fourth year students with first year students (p= .002).
