Abstract

Fire is a disaster that can cause material, economic, and loss of lives. BPBD data from 2017 to 2022 shows 2,822 cases of fire in school buildings, factories, places of worship, and residents’ housing. Handling fires using a light fire extinguisher is an efficient active fire protection system. Training can be provided using the digital learning method via the WhatsApp group which can be accessed anywhere and anytime. The study aimed to determine the effect of light fire extinguisher training of digital learning methods on knowledge, attitudes, and skills in using light fire extinguishers in the Faculty of Sports Science students. This research method is a True Experiment with Pretest-Posttest with a Control Group design. Samples were taken by cluster random sampling of 48 experimental groups and 48 control groups. The intervention was given to the experimental group in the form of posters and videos on the use of light fire extinguishers which were provided via the WhatsApp group. Data analysis used the Mann-Whitney test and it was found that training with digital learning methods affected knowledge, attitudes, and skills in using fire extinguishers (asymp.sig = 0.000). The training provided can significantly influence students’ knowledge, attitudes, and skills in using light fire extinguishers. It is hoped that training can be given to all students so that all students have readiness in the event of a fire disaster.
