Abstract:This paper takes Shumu Garden and Mulan Garden in South China Agricultural University (SCAU) as the research object, by means of field investigation and questionnaire survey, and explores the content and display forms of nature education on colleges. Based on sufficient field investigation, the questionnaire survey is conducted on students from the first to the fourth grade of the undergraduate program, which analyzes their cognitions and demands of nature education, their preference for the content and the display forms of nature education and so on. Through the study, it is found that college students’ demands for nature education have not been met and the nature education resources in school still have great potential for utilization. Additionally, the built display boards are mainly visual and static, where the texts are cumbersome and graphics are unattractive. It is suggested to pay more attention to both natural resources and cultural historical resources of the campus, adopt the rule of "3-10-3" to polish the article and pictures on display, apply new media and technology to increase interaction of display boards, and strengthen the maintenance and management of the boards.
