Outline of Final Research Achievements

Several lesson plans for disaster education were developed by university students who studied in the disaster-affected areas. The psychological transition of the students during the development process was also clarified. The lessons were also arranged to be practicable under the COVID-19 pandemic. Furthermore, an event for parents and children combining disaster prevention and space was planned and implemented based on the students' ideas.
In the disaster prevention classes given by experts, it became clear that the sustainability of the effects of disaster prevention education and its spread to families differed depending on the residential area and grade level of the target children. In addition, it was found that learning at a science museum, which is different from a school, made the effects of disaster education more sustainable.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

震災の学び手が世代や地域を超えて学んだ内容を伝えることで、震災の教訓の持続的伝承が可能となる。本研究は、その可能性を示したものである。また、同じ防災教育でも学習者の特性や学習者をとりまくさまざまな要因によって、効果や持続性が異なることを示し、学習者に合わせた防災教育のあり方を議論するための基礎資料を提供した。
