Introduction: Thirty eight states have laws requiring education of high school students on cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and the use of automated external defibrillators (AED). No study has measured the association of these laws and outcomes. Hypothesis: Out of hospital cardiac arrests (OHCAs) occurring in states with CPR high school education laws will have higher bystander CPR, survival, and favorable neurological survival than states without such laws. Methods: We conducted an analysis of the Cardiac Arrest Registry to Enhance Survival database and included all nontraumatic OHCAs with at least 50% population catchment from 1/2013-12/2017 in all ages. We excluded OHCAs witnessed by 911 responders, in healthcare facilities, or nursing homes. Outcomes were bystander CPR, survival to hospital discharge and neurologically favorable survival (Cerebral Performance Category score of 1 or 2 at hospital discharge). Chi-square tests were used to assess associations. Results: The 110,902 subjects with OHCA included Male, 64.0%; <18 yrs., 3.2%; <35 yrs., 10.7%; <50 yrs., 23.9%; White, 49.3%; Black, 19.1%; Hispanic, 2.3%; Other, 2.9%; Unknown, 26.5%. Most OHCAs occurred at home, 81.4%. 44.4% were witnessed by bystanders. 75.5% occurred in states with CPR high school education laws. A higher percent of OHCAs received bystander CPR prior to emergency medical services (EMS) arrival in states with CPR high school education laws (40.1%) compared to states without laws (37.0%) (p<0.001). Bystander CPR was less common in males (40.3% vs. 37.7% for females), those >50 yrs. (38.9% vs. 40.7% for ≤50 yrs.), Black and Hispanic subjects (25.7% and 34.9%, respectively, vs. 42.4% for Whites) (p<0.001 for all). Overall survival to hospital discharge was 10.4%; 8.8% had a favorable neurological outcome. A higher percent survived to hospital discharge in states with CPR high school education laws (11.0%) compared to states without laws (8.7%) (p<0.001). Neurologically favorable survival was more likely in states with CPR high school education laws, (9.3%) compared to states without laws (7.5%) (p<0.001). Conclusions: Bystander CPR, survival to hospital discharge, and neurologically favorable survival was higher in states that had CPR high school education laws.

This study is a documentation of the Visayas State University environmental consciousness drive for Senior High School students and youth leaders through an environmental jamboree in April 2018. Through quantitative and qualitative research methods, this study is designed to determine the Senior High School students and youth leaders' basic understanding of the essence of nature conservation and assess their learnings from the environmental jamboree lectures, environmentally-themed adventure race, and cultural night. In addition, this study enables the participants to develop personal reflections on their realizations of the importance of environment conservation. This study concludes that the environmental jamboree participants have little knowledge about environmental conservation at the start of the activity. Moreover, the participant's knowledge in the realm of nature conservation has significantly improved after they participated in the different activities of the environmental jamboree. Finally, the activities in the environmental jamboree have enabled the participants to realize that good ecosystem service only comes from a clean and healthy environment. Furthermore, this study reinforced another realization that environmental conservation efforts would be more successful if there is unity and coordination among people. Nevertheless, the participants were informed that such realizations could only materialize if there is determination and hard work among people involved in environmental conservation efforts.

So far, evaluation of environmental learning has evaluated only single points in time; however, accumulated learning experiences should have greater effect on learning and on environmental problems. We investigate conceptions of learning and the accumulated educational experiences they reflect in the context of environmental education, which has a unique position in education systems. We developed and conducted a systematic survey in order to create a learning scale for environmental education conceptions; participants were Japanese high school students (N = 771). Analysis found that students’ conceptions of learning consist of six orientations: (1) Environmental Recognition/Conservation Responsibility Orientation, (2) Thought Expansion/Fulfillment, (3) Certainty/Applicability Orientation, (4) Teacher-Dependent Orientation, (5) Experience-Based Physical Activity Orientation, and (6) Duty-Adjusted Orientation. Factors (1), (2), and (5), above, are considered unique to environmental learning. Factor (1) reflects the societal content of environmental conservation, which is a criterion for evaluating environmental learning. In contrast, Factors (3), (4), and (6) are general educational factors mediated by elements such as academic achievement. The scale obtained from this research will help determine learners’ views of and degree of interest in environmental learning.
