英文摘要	The problems that exist within society are not only economic or political but also environmental. The increase in flooding, climate change, and desertification requires urgent attention, hence the need for coordinated efforts to help solve environmental problems. This study is targeted at students at the secondary school level based on the principle of catching them young. The paper highlights some of the effects of water pollution, including the direct or indirect effect on humans as a result of the consumption of contaminated plants or animals. As a method of controlling environmental pollution, schools, communities, nongovernmental organizations, and the public should collaborate and emphasis should be placed on the need to conserve our natural resources and the synergy that exists between the environment and water. The study is qualitative in nature and strategies for effective teaching of water pollution in a classroom setting are discussed, which include analogies, pictorial and photo analysis and the use of value clarification. The results of the study are presented under the following headings: (i) students' experience, (ii) reactions and responses, and (iii) intention towards future implementation. The results indicate that students were excited about the developed instructional strategy. Water and environmental education are briefly discussed and its broad aim highlighted, which is to help people comprehend their ecological environment. The paper concludes by recommending that there should be proper monitoring, regulation, and control of the environment to combat water pollution and the media and non-governmental organizations should intensify efforts to create awareness on the dangers of environmental problems.
