Description

One disaster-prone country in
the world is Indonesia. Communities have to be ready
for disasters. To strengthen the community's readiness
to deal with disasters, knowledge must be increased.
Better educational methods are needed to convey
material, one of which is by utilizing technology.
Objective: The study aimed to construct and test the
effect of SiBen disaster education to improve the
readiness toward hurricanes in the community of
Lubuklinggau, South Sumatra, Indonesia. Method:
Research and Development (R & R&D) with
experimental tests, pre-test, and post-test were applied
in this study. A total of 40 people were given three
meetings within two weeks. Results: As the result, the
participants have shown progression of readiness (t =
3.168, p < 0.002). The findings indicated that the SiBen
Application effectively improved the readiness of the
community toward the hurricane. It is hoped that this
application can be widely used to improve the readiness
of the whole community. Recommendation: For further
researchers are expected to be able to develop this
application by adding online simulations together and
adding other types of disasters
