Abstract
Abstract
This study is an assessment and utilization of improvised warning device in developing students’ preparedness on disaster risk management. The study aimed to examine the performance of the respondents through learning activities. The improvised warning device was fully functional as rated by the experts. A sample of 36 Grade 8 students with 15 male and 21 females was used in this study. Working in teams, students make decision and share information about typhoon behavior and preparedness for disaster risk management. Results showed that the students developed their preparedness on disaster risk management, analysed behaviour of typhoons and potential risk and understand weather pattern. Thus, students learned to measure rainfall using the improvised warning device. Students also have learned the use of the device as all groups had shown exemplary performance. The students perceived that the activities made them become knowledgeable of disaster risk management. Based on the results of the study, the researcher recommends utilizing the improvised warning device in laboratory activity in teaching Typhoon: Awareness and Preparation
