Implementation of a Learning Assistance Framework for Prolonged Evacuation Life in an Era of Massive Natural Disasters

Abstract

In this research, we have implemented of a learning assistance framework for evacuated students. As natural disasters intensify due to climate change, evacuation timespans are becoming prolonged. This is not an exception for learners like university students. Current e-learning environments assume the existence of a stable Internet connection. However, the Internet may not be sufficiently accessible in evacuation centers for e-learning. In unstable communication environments such as makeshift Wi-Fi networks used in evacuation centers, it is difficult to conduct e-learning. Thus, a mechanism that can allow students to engage in e-learning in evacuation situations is required. In this paper, we describe the detail of implementation the learning assistance framework for evacuated learners and show the results of our experimental use of the framework.
