Innovation in education through lesson study: incorporating disaster risk reduction in mathematics lesson to inculcate tsunami awareness

Measures for disaster risk reduction (DRR) can be integrated into a nation’s education system in order to help build long term resilience of the people and education system. Consequently, children can be taught about natural disasters so that they are aware of calamities and be reminded of Allah’s g...
