Abstract

The use of local herbal plants as a source of active compounds holds great potential in the fields of health and pharmacy; however, students’ understanding of how to identify these compounds remains limited. This community service activity aims to enhance the knowledge and skills for students of Public High School (PHS) 2 Lhoknga, Aceh Besar, in identifying active compounds from local herbal plants through a simple laboratory-based approach. The methods employed include educational sessions, demonstrations, and hands-on laboratory practice utilizing basic techniques such as extraction and phytochemical testing. The results of the activity showed an increase in students’ understanding of the types of active compounds, the benefits of herbal plants, and basic skills in the identification process. Additionally, this activity fostered students’ interest in the field of chemistry and the scientific utilization of local resources. Thus, this training is expected to serve as a first step in developing science literacy and the sustainable utilization of herbal plants within the school environment.
