Abstract

This service program aims to increase students' interest in chemistry lessons through contextual activities, namely making aromatherapy candles from used cooking oil and coffee. This activity responds to the challenge of students' low understanding of chemistry concepts and the lack of education on sustainable household waste management. The implementation was conducted in the form of interactive training to 12th grade science students at SMAN 2 Pontianak, combining demonstration with hands-on practice. Pre-Test results showed an average initial understanding of 89.63%, then significantly improved after the training, with 93% of participants reaching the excellent category. Satisfaction surveys showed positive responses to the quality of learning and guidance provided. This activity was able to bridge chemical theory with real applications, as well as introduce circular economy principles in a simple way. The impact of the activity includes increased understanding, appreciation of chemistry, and environmental awareness. This activity has the potential to be implemented in other schools as a practice-focused learning method.

Abstract

Many high school students perceive chemistry as a difficult subject and find it less relevant to daily life. To increase students' interest in chemistry studies, a Student Creativity Program (PKM) was conducted through the creation of herbal soap made from pineapple peel waste. Pineapple peel (Ananas comosus) was chosen because it contains bioactive compounds such as bromelain, flavonoids, tannins, and vitamin C, which have antibacterial and antioxidant properties. Through a project-based practical method, students from MAN 2 Pontianak were directly involved in the herbal soap-making process. The results of the activity showed an improvement in students' understanding of chemistry concepts and an increased interest in chemistry studies. Additionally, this activity supports environmental sustainability by utilizing organic waste. The implementation of practical learning methods has proven effective in enhancing critical thinking skills and fostering students' creativity in producing environmentally friendly products.
