Abstract


The limited availability of laboratory practical activities during the COVID-19 pandemic reduced students’ opportunities for direct learning experiences, particularly in parasitology, which involves relatively abstract concepts and microscopic specimens. This community service program aimed to improve students’ parasitology knowledge and literacy through an integrated educational and laboratory-based learning approach. The program involved 17 twelfth-grade Natural Science students from SMA Katolik Frateran Surabaya through instruction on gastrointestinal parasites followed by microscopic observation of parasite specimens. Evaluation was conducted using pre-tests, post-tests, and questionnaires. The mean knowledge score increased significantly from 36.47 ± 14.98 to 92.35 ± 13.48 (p < 0.0001), with all participants demonstrating improved scores. Participants also responded positively to the learning activities and use of laboratory facilities. Integrating educational instruction with practical laboratory activities provided a more concrete learning experience and effectively enhanced students’ understanding and parasitology literacy.
