The purpose of this study was to evaluate the digital literacy curriculum of Tular Nalar Internet and Disaster Preparedness in order to reduce hoaxes among PKK RW 69 women in Perum MGA Yogyakarta. This study uses an evaluation method oriented to the program's objectives that apply Tyler's model. Evaluation is carried out in the following steps: 1) Establishing program objectives; 2) Classifying objectives; 3) Identify structured objectives; 4) Data collection through: observation, interviews. Data analysis was carried out by assessing the conditions that occurred before, during and after the implementation of the digital literacy curriculum and drawing conclusions. The results of the study show that the Tular Nalar digital literacy curriculum in the PKK RW 69 Mitra Griya Asrita community provides awareness in critical thinking. PKK women become “Tahu (know), Tanggap (respond), Tangguh (resilient)” in responding to information in disaster emergency situations.
