As we are experiencing the affects of natural disasters more frequently from whatever phenomenon causing them, we need to raise a generation of students who can develop technology that can ease the devastating affects from them. I think having students do research of natural disasters in their region will provided a more real world connection for them. Also knowing who and how natural disasters are handled by the officials to help those affected by the disaster can also help raise a more literate society. By organizing a committee of students to prepare and work with the local agencies that assist people devastated by disasters is another way to raise their awareness. I think it is sad that it takes major devastation like a natural disaster to bring a nation together.
