Japan frequently suffers from all types of disasters such as earthquakes, typhoons, floods, volcanic eruptions, and landslides. One of the most essential ways to reduce the damage of natural disasters is to educate the general public to let them understand what is going on during the disasters. This leads individual to make the sound decision on what to do to prevent or reduce the damage. ERI, the Earthquake Research Institute, is qualified by MEXT (the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology) to develop education for earthquake disaster prevention in the Tokyo metropolitan area to work with an elementary school as a model to adopt scientific education. A magnitude 7 or greater earthquake beneath this area is recently evaluated to occur with a probability of 70% in 30 years. To better understand earthquakes in this region, "Special Project for Earthquake Disaster Mitigation in Tokyo Metropolitan Area" has been conducted mainly by ERI. It is a 4-year project to develop a high-density network with 400 sites at local elementary schools. We start our education project by using the real seismograms observed at their own schoolyards, putting emphasis on the reality and causality of earthquake disaster.
