This study aimed to evaluate the effect of integrating in the science instruction the concepts of Disaster Risk Reduction Management for earthquake and typhoon on the awareness of the Grade 8 students in Lahug Night High School. It is a quantitative research using a quasi-experimental design comparing the mean score of the 200 respondents as sample using the Slovin’s formula before and after the intervention.
A validated researcher-made instrument with a 40-item multiple choice test about the concepts of DRRM for earthquake and typhoon was used in gathering the data. The data gathered was analyzed using the t-Test: Paired Two Sample for Means statistic using spread sheets.
It is revealed in this study that the mean scores of the respondents during the pre-test and post-test have significant difference. The computed p-Value is 3.10E-162 or 0.00 which is lesser than the significance level (0.05). Therefore, integrating in the science instruction the concepts of Disaster Risk Reduction Management for earthquake and typhoon can really raise awareness and instrumental in making the students the catalyst in mitigating disaster risks.
