令和元年度 名古屋大学総長裁量経費 地域貢献事業「名古屋周辺の地震・活断層を学ぼう」活動報告

概要

The Institute for Space-Earth Environmental Research, Nagoya University, held a regional contribution program of “Letʼs study earthquake and active fault around Nagoya city” for the higher grade elementary school students on July 31–August 1, 2019. The twenty-five students took part in the program. The first day they went to Ogaki and Motosu, Gifu by bus and visited the Kinsho-zan Kaseki-kan (Museum) to observe the Permian fossils, Neo River to collect Shikamaia fossils, and the Seismic Faults Observation & Experience House to observe Neodani Fault, which ruptured causing the Nobi earthquake in 1891. We successfully made a meaningful field program. The second day began with a lecture on mechanism of earthquake occurrence and fault slipping by Prof. Sagiya. After the lecture, the students studied about natural disasters and their mitigation at the Disaster Mitigation Research Building (Gensai-kan), and took part in a hands-on experiment of making fault by the use of flour and cocoa powder. In the afternoon, they discussed about what was learned during this experiential learning program and summarized it in posters. Finally, they made poster presentation by groups. The program ended a success. The post-program questionnaire shows that the participants enjoyed the program a lot and learned many new things.
