In contrast, the fact indicates that these topics are taught by lecturing method and the teachers only used student’s handbook as the learning resources. Moreover, teachers are seldom using current research as learning resources. One of them is the Basil flower (Ocimum basilicum). This qualitative descriptive study is aimed to analyze the potential of the attractant compound Basil flower as a learning resource for Biotechnology subject in SMK. The curriculum analysis is done by adjusting the process and research product with the core curriculum standards in 2013. Based on the analysis of processes and products (facts, concepts, principles and procedures) study, the results of the research on attractant compound Basil flower (Ocimum basilicum) toward fruit flies can be used as a Biology learning resource of 11th grade at KD. 3.6 Curriculum 2013 SMK.
