This paper proposes a science and technology education program to teach junior high school students to measure terrain changes by using interferometric synthetic aperture radar (SAR). The objectives of the proposed program are to evaluate and use information technology by performing SAR data processing in order to measure ground deformation, and to incorporate an understanding of Earth sciences by analyzing interferometric SAR processing results. To draft the teaching guidance plan for the developed education program, this study considers both science and technology education. The education program was used in a Japanese junior high school. An educational SAR processor developed by the authors and the customized Delft object-oriented radar interferometric software package were employed. Earthquakes as diastrophism events were chosen as practical teaching materials. The selected events indicate clear ground deformation in differential interferograms with high coherence levels. The learners were able to investigate the ground deformations and disasters caused by the events. They interactively used computers and became skilled at recognizing the knowledge and techniques of information technology, and then they evaluated the technology. Based on the results of pre- and post-questionnaire surveys and self-evaluation by the learners, it was clarified that the proposed program was applicable for junior high school education, and the learners recognized the usefulness of Earth observation technology by using interferometric SAR. The usefulness of the teaching materials in the learning activities was also shown through the practical teaching experience.

ABSTRACTPKBM (Teaching and Learning Activity Center) Anak Negri in Ciledug organizes a Package B equivalent to a Junior High School which will take the Computer-Based National Examination (UNBK). Because in the PKBM Anak Negri there are no facilities for their students to do computer-based exam training because that is a problem for the Negri Children PKBM. Therefore, we provide a solution for PKBM Anak Negri to provide Computer Based National Examination (UNBK) training by utilizing the Moodle e-learning application with 2 trials and 2 tests. It is expected that all participants who participate in this training can produce a satisfactory value. Keywords: training, e-learning, PKBM, UNBK, moodle ABSTRAKPKBM (Pusat Kegiatan Belajar Mengajar) Anak Negri di Ciledug menyelenggarakan Program Paket B setara SMP yang akan mengikuti Ujian Nasional Berbasis Komputer(UNBK). Karena pada PKBM Anak Negri belum ada fasilitas untuk peserta didiknya melakukan pelatihan ujian berbasis komputer karena itu menjadi permasalahan pihak PKBM Anak Negri. Maka dari itu kami memberikan solusi bagi PKBM Anak Negri untuk memberikan pelatihan Simulasi Ujian Nasional Berbasis Komputer (UNBK) dengan memanfaatkan aplikasi e-learning Moodle dengan metode 2 kali test percobaan dan 2 kali test Ujian yang nantinya diharapkan semua peserta yang mengikuti pelatihan ini dapat menghasilkan nilai yang cukup memuaskan. Kata Kunci: pelatihan, e-learning, PKBM, UNBK, moodle
