I am a firm beliver that emergency managers must do three things to make learning about preparedness memorable.

For young and old learners to like readiness, we must do these:

• make it fun
• make it easy
• make is cheeful

If you watch this video, you will see that the students are engaged in a way that whenever you tell them about readiness, they will jump up. It takes time to reach this level of preparedness. It also takes a lot of time and cost.

These are my personal observations.
