Such disasters can disrupt learning by destroying school buildings or classrooms and teaching resources that can leads to school closures. This affects the normal teaching and learning in the classroom. Even students can be scattered to different locations for safety due to their homes being destroyed by the disasters.
To minimize such disruption in learning, as a teacher i will planned in advance basically to cater for such situations as follows;
-
I will create a home learning pack (HLP) booklet and distributed to every students in advanced to prepared them for the disasters. The booklet should contain every activities in relation to every topics in my teaching programs and syllabus. During the school lockdown they can work through from where we stop with the help of their parents or siblings. Whenever the school reopens then assessment will be given out for further adjustments. This will keeps the flow of learning even though the school is shutdown.
-
If the school or students have access to tablets, phones and computers. Then the students can learn through e- learning during the lockdown period. The knowledge of e-learning should be known to every students in advanced for such disasters. Whenever the disasters strikes the students learning can still continue and will not disrupt them. Unless if the school is located in remote areas that does not have acess to technology will find it bit difficult.
