In the early morning of September 6th, 2018, an intense earthquake struck Hokkaido Iburi-Tobu area. By this earthquake, many landslides occurred and claimed 36 lives. The landslide numbers reached 6,000 and mostly they are shallow landslides moving down of the air-fall pumice layer from Tarumai volcano which erupted ca. 9,000 years ago. However, southeast of the area, deep-seated landslides of dip-slipping type are also found.
The International Consortium on Landslides (ICL) and ICL supporting organizations jointly established the ISDR-ICL Sendai Partnerships 2015–2025 which is the voluntary commitment to the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015–2030. As the core activity of the Sendai Partnerships, ICL has created “Landslide Dynamics: ISDR-ICL Landslide Interactive Teaching Tools”, which are always updated and continuously improved, based on responses from users and lessons during their application. This paper describes the aim, outline, the contents of Text tools, PPT tools for lectures and PDF tools including already published reference papers/reports, guidelines, etc. Core parts of two fundamentals of the Teaching Tools, namely 1. Landslide types: description, illustration and photos, and 2. Landslide Dynamics for Risk Assessment are introduced.
