Abstract

One of the struggles in teaching Disaster Readiness and Risk Reduction subjects is that some students get bored while their teachers are discussing. Some teachers use video presentations to get their students’ attention. The researchers want to know how effective this kind of teaching technique is to the selected Grade 12 General Academic Strand students of Bestlink College of the Philippines.
