Outline of Final Research Achievements	In order to contribute to the continuity of disaster education in school education, the concept of time based on diachronic thinking was assumed to be a common ability required for disaster education and science education. Learning materials for geoscience, chemistry, and biology were explored and made into teaching materials for diachronic and step-by-step exploration and understanding in a variety of time frames. In addition, we have developed an exploratory learning program for volcanic activities directly related to disaster prevention education in junior high school science classes, in which learning items are arranged within the framework of diachronic thinking from viewpoints of rock texture and behavior of volatile components in magma, and confirmed through trial practice that the program is effective in developing diachronic thinking. The results were published in 14 papers (10 peer-reviewed).

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements	本研究は防災教育で育成が求められる人材像として，自然災害が生じる仕組みの科学的な理解や災害時の適切な行動に関する知識・技能を有することに加え，それらとは異なる観点から，自然現象を多様な時間軸を設定して通時的・段階的に探究・理解する能力を有することと考えた。これにより，学校教育においては教科として日常的に扱うことが困難でその継続性が課題と考えられる防災教育について，理科という教科を通して日常的に関わることの可能性を示唆した。例えば，地域の地形・地質環境の理解を通して生活空間に潜む災害リスクについて考えることである。自然環境の通時的な理解の促進は，事前防災のレジリエンス向上への寄与が期待される。
