Abstract: Background of the study: (Arya AS, Padmanabhan G, Karanth A) ?Prevention is better than cure? is an old saying which is very apt in the context of disaster management. India is large country and has had more than its share of major natural hazards like drought, floods, earthquakes, and cyclones throughout its history of civilization. Naturally the country developed its own practices and strategies for coping with various natural calamities. Since independence, India has developed a nationwide relief administration. There has been a paradigm shift in the approach to disaster management in the country. The new approach proceeds from the conviction that development cannot be sustainable unless disaster mitigation is built into the development process. The new policy also emanates from the belief that investment in mitigation is much more cost effective than expenditure on relief and rehabilitation.1 Objectives: to asses effectiveness of structured teaching programme on disaster management among B. Ed. students. Material and method: a pre - experimental approach with one - group pre - test post - test design was used to evaluate the effectiveness of the structured teaching programme on disaster management for B. Ed. students.60 samples were selected using purposive sampling technique from selected B. Ed. college at Jaipur. Conceptual framework of study based on Dorothy Johnson?s open system theory. Pre test and Structured teaching programme was delivered on day 1 and on 7th day post test was conducted.

The mean percentage of the knowledge score in the pre - test was 45.20% with mean and SD of 13.56?11.99 where as the post - test was 77.66% with mean?SD of 23.3?13.42. 3) The mean post - test knowledge scores of the B.
