Outline of Final Research Achievements

In this study, we developed an e-Learning system of the disaster prevention education for lower grade elementary school students. The Necessity of this system was as follows. In conventional teaching policy of Japan, for example, if an earthquake or a fire occurred, school children would be trained to wait for their teachers’ instructions and to evacuate by following the teachers’ guidance. However, if an earthquake happens at recess, students scatter and take a break in and out of school buildings and, therefore, it is extremely difficult, if not impossible, for them to follow their teachers’ directions. As a result, it is necessary to develop an evacuation strategy, especially for schoolchildren who are left inside the school buildings and cannot receive teachers’ directions face to face. The result of actual evacuation drills were successful. All of lower grade elementary school students could evacuate smoothly without doing wrong action.
