Abstract The implementation of landslide disaster mitigation education for students is an effort that can be made to increase students’ disaster knowledge and preparedness for landslides. Actions are needed to increase disaster knowledge and preparedness to minimize the impact caused by disasters. The objectives of this study are (1) to analyze the level of disaster knowledge of grade VIII students towards landslides; (2) to analyze the preparedness of grade VIII students of SMP Negeri 1 Jenawi towards landslides; and (3) to analyze the effectiveness of the implementation of landslide disaster mitigation education on the level of disaster knowledge and the level of preparedness of grade VIII students of SMP Negeri 1 Jenawi. This quantitative research method uses a pretest-posttest control group experimental design that uses questionnaires for data collection. The results showed that 1) The level of disaster knowledge of experimental class students on pretest results has an average of 81.59, while the control class has an average of 79.71, 2) The level of preparedness of experimental class students has an average of 64.97, while the control class has an average of 66.52. 3) The effectiveness of implementing disaster mitigation education on the level of disaster knowledge and preparedness of students in the N-Gain Score test shows that it is effective enough to be applied as an appropriate and effective step in reducing the risk of landslides.
