Household Digital Literacy in Dealing with Landslide Disaster

Abstract

On April 1, 2023, Tempurejo Sub-district, Blora District, Blora Regency, experienced a landslide that affected three houses. Several efforts have been made to reduce the occurrence of landslides, namely by making gabions and covering up the riverbank areas that have collapsed with soil. However, it turns out that these efforts have yet to bear fruit, and landslides are still occurring. Landslides in Tempurejo Sub-district have happened in the last few years, and to this day, the land that landslides still frequently collapse. The unpreparedness of households in facing disasters in the current era of social media shows that disaster literacy in formal education and society still needs to be improved. Therefore, one way to prepare households to face disasters is by increasing disaster digital literacy. This research aims to analyze household digital literacy in dealing with landslides. This research was conducted using a quantitative approach with a one-group pre-test and post-test design with a research sample of 52 heads of families. Data collection was carried out using tests with data analysis techniques using descriptive analysis techniques. The results of this research show an increase in household digital literacy knowledge regarding disasters. Keywords: Landslide, Digital Literacy, Household
