Kerala is mainly prone to high incidence of various types of disasters, not only natural hazards but also anthropogenic hazards too. According to Charles Fritz, disaster is an event, concentrated in time and space in which a society or a relatively self sufficient subdivisions of a society undergoes severe danger and incurs such losses to its members and physical appurtenances that the social structures in disrupted and the fulfillment of all or some of the essential functions of the society is prevented (Paul, 2011). More people are injured than die from the direct impacts associated with an extreme event. If the people are skilled in managing the disasters, the disaster vulnerability will reduce. Multimedia refers to content that uses a combination of different content forms. This contrasts with media that use only rudimentary computer displays such as text-only or traditional forms of printed or hand-produced material. Multimedia includes a combination of text, audio, still images, animation, video, or interactivity content forms. The Objective of the study is to compare the effectiveness of Multimedia strategy on achievement in Disaster Management with that of Conventional Activity method of teaching.
