Abstract

Background: Java Island is a highly disaster-prone area in Indonesia due to its location in the convergence zone, where two tectonic plates meet. Mangrove planting and earthquake education are two natural disaster mitigation efforts that complement each other in reducing the risk and impact of disasters, especially in coastal areas that are vulnerable to earthquakes and tsunamis. Objectives: The purpose of this activity is to increase community knowledge by educating about natural disaster mitigation and earthquakes, as well as preventing sea abrasion disasters through mangrove planting. Method: The method of implementing community service activities includes education with lecture methods and mangrove planting. The activity was attended by approximately 28 people in Klayar Hamlet, Sidokelar Village, Paciran Subdistrict, Lamongan, East Java. Results: The post-test results showed an increase in knowledge about earthquake disaster mitigation. Mangrove planting activities totaling 110 trees ran smoothly. Evaluation and follow-up are carried out with a questionnaire while tree planting is evaluated once a year to see the results. Conclusion: Mangrove planting activities totaling 110 trees ran smoothly. Evaluation and follow-up are carried out with a questionnaire while tree planting is evaluated once a year to see the results.

Abstract

School-age children are vulnerable to the impact of disasters due to their lack of understanding and knowledge about earthquake preparedness. To increase children’s disaster preparedness knowledge, an attractive learning media smart boxes can be employed. This study aims to analyze the effect of smart box education on students’ knowledge of earthquake disaster preparedness. The research design was a quasi-experiment with two groups and a pre-post-test control group. The population consisted of 180 elementary school students, selected by cluster random sampling, with 130 students involved in the study (65 in the intervention group and 65 in the control group). Data were collected using an earthquake preparedness knowledge questionnaire. The intervention group received smart box education, while the control group received lecture-based education. The pre- and post-tests were conducted on the same day. The study took place on February 27, 2025, at Madrasah Ibtidaiyah Muhammadiyah Sedayulawas in the Brondong District of the Lamongan Regency. The data were then analyzed using Wilcoxon and Mann-Whitney tests (α ≤ 0.05). The results showed that 60% of students had poor knowledge before receiving smart box education while after receiving smart box education, 58.5% of students had good knowledge. Providing smart box education and lecture media increased students’ knowledge about earthquake disaster preparedness (p=0.000), with an average score of 25.77 in the intervention group and 4.77 in the control group. Smart box education proved to be more effective than lectures in increasing students’ knowledge of earthquake preparedness because smart boxes encourage critical thinking and hands-on learning, whereas lectures only require students to listen.
