Group Work
1. Organize the class into groups of 5 and instructs each group to elect a facilitator and scribe.
2. Then, instruct each group to do one of the following:
a. Each group thinks of a disaster that all group members have first-hand knowledge of;
b. Each group thinks of a disaster that all group members are familiar although may not have first-hand information;
c. Read a news clipping provided by the teacher about a disaster.
3. Ask learners to identify the hazards and exposed elements. For each exposed element, write down the specific factor they think may have made this
exposed element vulnerable/resilient to the hazard. Have learners identify if the vulnerability/capacity is physical, social, economic or environmental.
Have the elected facilitator manage the discussion.
4. After 15 minutes, have the elected scribe of each group present the group’s work to the class. Learners from other groups can comment and give
suggestions regarding either additional elements at risk or the corresponding vulnerabilities or capacities.
