Semester Learning Plan (SLP) is a learning planning document for one semester, prepared as a guide for students in conducting academic activities during that semester to achieve the predetermined learning outcomes. An SLP is determined and developed independently or collaboratively by lecturers in a particular field of science and/or technology within a department. The SLP can be periodically adjusted to follow developments in science and technology.The SLP contains several pieces of information, such as:Name of the study program, course name and code, semester, credit units (SKS), and the name of the course instructor;Graduate learning outcomes associated with the course;Final competencies planned for each stage of learning;Study materials related to the competencies to be achieved;Learning methods;Allocated time;Description of assignments to be completed by students throughout the semester;Assessment criteria, indicators, and weighting;List of references used.Based on the results of monitoring and evaluation previously conducted by each study program, as well as the audit results by university auditors, it was found that several SLPs still do not meet the requirements in terms of either format or content. To address this, on Tuesday, October 10, 2023, the two study programs under the Faculty of Pharmacy held a refresher workshop on SLP writing. The event was organized under the coordination of the Faculty and facilitated by the Heads of the Bachelor of Pharmacy and Professional Pharmacist Study Programs.The outcome of this workshop was the production of SLPs that meet the required standards for all courses in both study programs, thereby ensuring that the learning process can run optimally in accordance with the established curriculum.In addition to the SLP refresher, the workshop also included a socialization of the integration of research and community service results into teaching. This session was delivered by the Head of Research for the Bachelor of Pharmacy Study Program, apt. Ria Afrianti, M.Farm. Integrating research, community service, and teaching is crucial, as these three elements—teaching, research, and community service (PkM)—are interconnected processes in higher education. Ideally, teaching should be based on PkM outcomes obtained from community mentoring activities in the field. PkM is also the application of research results, and lecturer research should be based on learning outcome achievements.(EF)

The Faculty of Pharmacy at Universitas Perintis Indonesia once again demonstrated its commitment to making a tangible contribution to society through a Community Service Activity (PkM) held on Monday, June 16, 2025, in Lambung Bukit Village, Pauh District, Padang City

The event carried the theme “Health Education on the Use of Traditional Medicines and Health Screening,” aiming to raise public awareness and understanding of the importance of safe and appropriate use of traditional medicines, as well as to provide direct health screening services to local residents.

In carrying out this activity, lecturers from the Faculty of Pharmacy delivered health education based on the findings of their research. The materials presented included guidance on the selection, usage, as well as the potential benefits and risks of traditional medicines commonly used in daily life. In addition, the community service team also provided education on healthy lifestyles as a preventive measure against various diseases.

The residents of Lambung Bukit Village warmly welcomed the event and participated in the activities with great enthusiasm and attention. They also had the opportunity to undergo free health screenings facilitated by the team from the Faculty of Pharmacy.

Through this community service activity, the Faculty of Pharmacy at Universitas Perintis Indonesia hopes to continue bridging the application of research findings to community life and to enhance the role of higher education institutions in strengthening community health based on local wisdom.

This activity serves as a tangible manifestation of the synergy between the three pillars of higher education (tridharma perguruan tinggi) and community needs, while also providing valuable experience for lecturers in applying pharmaceutical knowledge directly in the field.
