How should we accept the effects of The Great East Japan Earthquake and Tsunami as a Researcher of Pedagogy?(Disater and Educational Administration)

Abstract

We were asked how we should accept the effects of the March 2011 earthquake-tsunami disaster. I was strongly shocked by this disaster. After that, I have been considering this historical experience as three aspects. Firstly this disaster occurred in Tohoku area where was politically, economically and socially deprived region. Secondary this unforgiving disaster of unheard-of dimensions was related the responsibility by science. Thirdly we should focus upon this calamity as academic occurrences. In late March, I undertook an interview to the people who went away from their home towns where they had the casualties among humans and animals by the trouble at Electric Power Co.'s Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant crippled by the earthquake and tsunami last year. I found a lot of useful answers from them. As a researcher, we should undertake our professional activities like survey about what was happened at that time.
