Research on the Promoting of Regional Understanding and Effective of Disaster Prevention Education by Exercises in Creating the 3D Terrain Model －A Case Study of Hill area in Utsunomiya City , Tochigi Prefecture－

Abstract

The purpose of this research is to present a new methodology in disaster prevention education through the development and practice of simple and inexpensive teaching materials. In recent years, excellent educational methods using advanced ICT technology have been developed, and this research demonstrated a technique for creating a three-dimensional topographical model from contour lines using a transparent plastic container lid. As a result of the analysis, learning effects were confirmed after the course of regional understanding of topography.
