Abstract

This study is to develop tsunami-based digital map (application) to help both students and the public accessing information about earthquake mitigation. In addition, it also aims to identify factors affecting learning outcome in implementation of tsunami-based digital map for disaster mitigation learning. The study was a quantitative and developmental study. The data collection techniques were questionnaire distribution and observation with the help of instrument. It was conducted in Samudra universities. The population was all individuals involved in learning process and management in Samudra University. The samples were 39 geography students taking disaster mitigation class, lectures and Head of geography Study Program of Samudra University. This study using Multiple Linear Regression Analysis. This study is a pioneer study in which researchers developed tsunami-based digital map as a medium to enhance student’s understanding on disaster mitigation.
