This community service activity aimed to introduce deep learning to elementary school teachers of Natural and Social Sciences (IPAS) across Bengkalis Regency through an experience-based workshop. The activity involved 26 IPAS teachers as participants. A participatory, experience-based training method was chosen because it allows teachers to experience for themselves the deep learning process they are expected to apply, making it more effective for building pedagogical understanding than one-way lecturing. This activity represents an effort to increase community capacity, particularly among teachers, by applying educational research results to classroom practice. The results showed that all indicators reached 100% and were categorized as very good. Qualitatively, participants stated that the workshop encouraged active involvement, exploration, discovery, and enjoyable learning, while also strengthening teachers’ readiness to develop simple experiment-based LKPDs. However, limitations in time, infrastructure, and school facilities remained important obstacles to implementation in practice. Therefore, an experience-based workshop can serve as a relevant initial strategy for introducing deep learning to teachers, although its sustained implementation still requires follow-up mentoring and institutional support.
