THIS IMAGE HAS BEEN MADE ON CANVA APP EXPLAINING THE PRINCIPLE BEHIND CHERNOBYL DISASTER ITS EFFECT AND AFTERMATH
An interactive illustration about the Chernobyl Disaster which covers when and where did it occur, about the power plant, the death toll, the series of events, causes, compensation to the people, impact on people and environment, legislation passed on nuclear power plants and waste disposal in power plants, safety precautions passed after the disaster and the present scenario in Chernobyl and the areas around the reactor. It was made using the Mindomo app
Student groups are given captioned photographs of the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant facility and surrounding towns taken before and 28 years after the 1986 disaster. Based on the captions and clues in the images, they arrange them in sequential order. While viewing the completed sequence of images, students reflect on what it might have been like to be there, and ask themselves: what were people thinking, doing and saying at each point? This activity assists students in gaining an understanding of how devastating nuclear meltdowns can be, which underscores the importance of responsible engineering. It is recommended that this activity be conducted before the associated lesson, Nuclear Energy through a Virtual Field Trip.
An infographic presentation on the chernobyl nuclear disaster
By tracing the movement of radiation released during an accident at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant, students see how air pollution, like particulate matter, can become a global issue.
