Abstract

What is a natural disaster? How much do we know about it? Modern technology undoubtedly helped people learn about natural phenomena that sometimes can be misdirected into disaster. Natural disasters can cause quite an enormous impact, such as property damage and the number of injured or dead victims. Disaster education that applied science, technology, engineering, and mathematics could be a potential strategy to prepare the local community in managing the risk of natural disasters. This study is part of literature research on the integration of STEM in disaster education focused on disaster learning media to increase students’ awareness of disaster prevention, impacts, and mitigation. This study aims to identify national and international journals related to STEM, disasters, and learning media; and evaluate the effectiveness of implementing STEM integrated learning media. In 2011-2021 there are 305 publications and 15 articles reviewed in this study. The results indicate that STEM-based disaster learning media can develop students’ ability to solve problems related to disaster mitigation and disaster knowledge. The development of learning media to teach disaster education need to be reviewed and adapted to the geographical conditions of Indonesia, several topics about disaster as recommendation for learning is disaster that often afflict Indonesia.

Highlights

  • In the first-quarter of 2021, Indonesia has been threatened by 1,205 natural disasters dominated by hydro meteorological disaster with 501 events of floods, 339 of hurricane, and 233 of landslides [1]

  • The results indicate that STEM-based disaster learning media can develop students' ability to solve problems related to disaster mitigation and disaster knowledge

  • The effective and simpler way to reduce the impact of disaster and increasing risk awareness of local community can be done through school by developing disaster knowledge integrated with several subjects to students [3,6]

Summary

Introduction

In the first-quarter of 2021, Indonesia has been threatened by 1,205 natural disasters dominated by hydro meteorological disaster with 501 events of floods, 339 of hurricane, and 233 of landslides [1]. The numbers of disasters in Indonesia can be caused by the geographical location which on the Pacific Ring of Fire and between three large tectonic plates: Indo-Australia plates, Eurasia plates, and Pacific plates [2,3]. These conditions can threaten to occur earthquakes, tsunamis, and landslide. The disasters that occur by July 2021 in Indonesia damaging 767 units of property, and 4 death of victims [5] Those impact of disaster can be reducing by applying the technologies to announce the early-warning to their local community in the disaster prone-area, but it costs a lot. The effective and simpler way to reduce the impact of disaster and increasing risk awareness of local community can be done through school by developing disaster knowledge integrated with several subjects to students [3,6]
