Abstract :
Learning for earthquake disaster is important in Japan. However, it is rare to experience a big earthquake disaster even in Japan. Therefore, it is difficult to teach the importance of learning for earthquake disaster. We developed a learning support environment that can give a learner simulated experience of earthquake disaster by mobile augmented reality.
