Action research was used since action research is a way of assessing result while operating. Purposive sampling was used to select 30 students for the study. Data were collected through tests (pre-intervention and post-intervention tests). The scores of the pre and post intervention tests were compared and result analyzed. The analyzed results indicated that students’ performance had improved remarkably after the implementation of all the intervention.

No student scored marks less than 30 marks.  Based on the findings of the study, it can be concluded that there are a lot of performance enhancements in using constructivist approach in teaching and learning mole concept at Adobewura SHS since it improves conceptual understanding and also there is a positive effect on students’ attitudes of mole concept. The researcher recommends that the use of constructivist approach in teaching and learning chemistry at the Senior High School should be encouraged by Curriculum developers and education implementers for students should have a hands-on experience with mole concept in learning chemistry.   Keywords: Constructivist, Mole Concept, Demonstration, Purposive sampling, Intervention

Abstract There are still a few handouts created by the teachers. In fact, teachers feel lazy to make a handout to succeed their teaching and learning process, especially civic teachers who are still low in understanding how to make and design their own handout. A handout is an instrument that teachers supposed to writing it. By writing a handout, teacher can explore his material based on the problems faced in the class. That is way; the Team thought that we need to give them something to train them in writing their own teaching handout. This community service was given to civic teachers of senior high school who has the important role in tranfering knowledge about civic subject. This activity had some sessions, there were; lecturing, discussion, questions answer and feedback. It hopes that by understanding the way in designing a teaching handout, they will be encouraged to make their own handout to support their teaching learning process in the classroom. ?é?á Key words : a teaching handout, a civic subject ?é?á
