Abstract: Referring to the need to provide materials and skills regarding the preparation
and extraction of natural ingredients with medicinal potential to vocational pharmacy
students, it is necessary to carry out integrated school Community Service (Pengabdian
Kepada Masyrakat or PKM) activities. This Community Service aims to assess the level
of knowledge and skills regarding the preparation and extraction of betel leaf simplicia
before being formulated into various pharmaceutical products. This Community Service
activity was carried out using the method of simulation and demonstration on the
preparation and extraction of green betel leaf simplicia. The results of the activities were
then evaluated using the pre and post-test methods to measure participants' understanding
of the preparation and extraction of betel leaves. The participants of this Community
Service were from Daya Utama Vocational High School, consisting of 26 students
accompanied by three supervising teachers. Before being given materials and skills for
preparing and extracting natural ingredients, the average score of students' knowledge
level was 52.5. After the provision of materials and skills, it increased to 69.3. The
conclusion was that the student's knowledge level increased by 16.73, with the t-test
results showing a significant difference before and after the provision of materials and
skills.
