It's not what the post is talking about, but it's the same solution for both. The post is talking about how FEMA would like people to learn to react to emergencies.
I think that a sentence or two about terrorist attacks, in the context of a larger class on "how to deal with emergencies" would be reasonable, although a WHOLE class about it would be less-than-helpful. But "here's how to tell if someone's having a stroke; here's the really basic form of CPR; if there's an active shooter, either run away or hide unless you've got no other choice than fight, in which case fighting is better than doing nothing; here's how to make a splint and here's a tourniquet; if your car breaks down in the snow in the wilderness, stay with the car instead of wandering off to freeze to death while looking for help; put up road flares behind your car if you break down at night so that people don't just drive into you" -- something like that seems like it would make sense.
