This paper presents quantitative research results regarding students?
attitudes and preferences towards disaster learning multimedia to enhance
preparedness. The research was conducted during February and March 2021,
where the respondents' answers were collected by sending an online survey
questionnaire electronically to the email addresses of high schools. The
general hypothesis refers to verifying the claim that the application of
multimedia in children's education in schools about disasters ensures that
students are acquainted with disasters and develop skills for safety and
risk management in case of disasters. The regression model within the
conducted research confirmed that the education of students through
multimedia has the most significant impact on safety and risk management in
disasters. Future directions of research in this field should move towards
the analysis of different simulation models that can be of great help to
acquaint students with the dangers arising from disasters. Given that
simulation has proven to be an effective tool in acquiring knowledge, their
application in educating students about disasters would inevitably have
significant effects.
