DIGITALWISE EDUCATION“EDUKASI PENCEGAHAN CYBERBULLYING UNTUK GENERASI MUDA”SMA NEGERI 5 TASIKMALAYA

Abstract

The rise of cybercrime in Indonesia reflects the lack of public understanding of technology and information. One form of this crime is cyberbullying, which is carried out repeatedly through electronic devices and has a negative impact on the victim. This action includes various forms such as verbal bullying, flaming, harassment, and cyberstalking. This study aims to develop a cyberbullying prevention education program at SMA Negeri 5 Tasikmalaya, targeting the younger generation. This program aims to increase students' awareness of the impact of cyberbullying, develop positive communication skills, and promote digital ethics through a technology-based approach. The methods used include an initial survey, interactive training, and evaluation of the program's effectiveness. The results of the study showed a significant increase in students' understanding of cyberbullying and their ability to prevent and respond to it. This program is expected to be a reference for other schools to create a safer and healthier digital environment. In addition, this program also provides an understanding of the psychological impacts of cyberbullying, such as stress, depression, and suicide risk, and teaches students how to recognize the symptoms and preventive measures that can be taken.
