Environmental programs are often carried out by various parties to foster a spirit of love and appreciation for the environment and biological diversity among individual. SEE Nature program organized by UKM is a nature awareness program for students aimed to cultivate knowledge related to biological diversity and environmental conservation so that biological diversity and the environment can be appreciated in everyday life. This program involves a learning and appreciation phase that includes four nature modules. The objective of this study is to determine the level of effectiveness of the SEE Nature program among school students, as well as to determine the relationship between the demographic factors of school students that affect the level of effectiveness of this program. This study involves questionnaires on participants from primary school students with different backgrounds before and after participating in the program. The level of effectiveness of the SEE Nature module has been measured through the evaluation of questionnaires based on students' perceptions, knowledge and awareness of biological diversity and nature as well as their opinions about the SEE Nature program held. The t-test was used to evaluate the relationship between the effectiveness of the module before and after the program at the 95% probability level, while the Kruskal-Wallis test was used to see the significant difference of demographic factors on the effectiveness of the SEE Nature module before and after the program at the 90% probability level. The results of the analysis show that the level of effectiveness of the SEE Nature module is positive, indicating that there is a significant difference (p<0.05) and there is an increase of students’ perception, knowledge and awareness towards nature with the increase of the mean score after the program. The age factor showed a significant difference (p<0.1) and influenced the effectiveness of the SEE Nature module after the program with significant values of 0.041 (perception), 0.009 (knowledge), 0.024 (awareness) and 0.000 (opinion). In addition, the analysis of knowledge and opinion is influenced by the demographic factors of gender and schools therefore has a significant difference (p<0.1) with a significant value of 0.065(gender) and 0.004(school) for knowledge while 0.015(gender) and 0.002(school) for opinion However, the demographic factor of race does not have a significant difference (p>0.1) and does not affect the effectiveness of the SEE Nature module. The results of this survey show that the SEE Nature program is effective in improving knowledge, perception and awareness among school students towards nature. But there is also some part of SEE Nature modules and the questioning method need to improve to make it more effective.
