Implementation of Project-Based Learning (PjBL) in Collaboration Skills and Communication Skills of Students

Abstract

This study aims to (1) determine an increase in collaboration and communication skills through project-based learning, (2) determine the relationship of collaboration skills and communication skills through project-based learning. The population of this research is six classes XI MIA and a sample of this research are two classes, an experiment class with projectbased learning and a control class with conventional. The instrument of collaboration and communication skills are the observation sheet and questionnaire. Improved collaboration and communication skills were analyzed using normalized gain (Ngain). A collaborative relationship with communication using the correlation test. N-gain results show that project-based learning can improve student's collaboration and communication skills, each in the medium category. The relationship between collaboration and communication skills shows a positive direction, which means that the more the collaboration skills increase, the better the student's communication skills.

The implementation of mini-research project to train undergraduate students’ scientific writing and communication skills

“…Project-based learning had a significant effect on the students writing skills and help the student to improve their writing skills in a collaborative environment (Aghayani & Hajmohammadi, 2019;Hasani et al, 2017;Mandow et al, 2014;Rachmawati & Asmara, 2018). In addition, project-based learning can also be used as a means to train and improve student communication skills (Awang & Daud, 2015;Kovalyova et al, 2016;Mandow et al, 2014;Sagala et al, 2019), because in this study students are required to deliver each result of their mini-research project verbally in a scientific presentation.…”

“…Good scientific writing skills are obtained through exercises facilitated by the teacher in a student-centered learning model, such as PjBL (Project Based Learning). PjBL has a significant effect on students' scientific writing skills, and through a collaborative environment in PjBL learning students can be helped to train and develop not only scientific writing skills, but also communication skills (Aghayani & Hajmohammadi, 2019;Awang & Daud, 2015;Hasani et al, 2017;Kovalyova et al, 2016;Mandow et al, 2014;Permana et al, 2021;Permana & Setyawan, 2020;Rachmawati & Asmara, 2018;Sagala et al, 2019). This research uses a modified form of learning from PjBL called mini-research project.…”

Optimizing Collaboration Skills in the 21st Century: Recent Innovations in Project Model Differentiated Learning

“…This enhances cooperation and responsibility among each group member when presenting their project results. Additionally, clear and effective communication is essential to ensure that both the teacher and other groups or the audience can understand the discussions presented by the presenting group (Sagala et al, 2020;Tika & Agustina, 2021). In the final syntactic structure, students are evaluated by being asked to reflect on their feelings and experiences during the learning process.…”

Study Of STEM-Based Learning Against 4C Skills (Critical, Creative, Communication, and Collaboration) In Science

“…Adanya pemberajaran berbasis STEM dapat dilakukan dengan menggunakan keterampilan 4C, yakni 1) Critical Thinking and Problem Solving Skills menjadi bagian dari keterampilan 4C yang wajib dikuasai oleh peserta didik agar memiliki kemampuan untuk berpikir analisis, interpretasi, presisi, akurasi, memecahkan masalah, serta mengungkapkan argumennya berdasarkan pengetahuan yang dipelajarinya (Aliftika, 2019), 2) Communication Skills atau keterampilan komunikasi merupakan keterampilan yang dapat dilatih dengan menciptakan peluang kepada peserta didik untuk menyampaikan gagasan, ide, dan pendapatnya saat pembelajaran berlangsung baik dalam aktivitas diskusi kelompok maupun dalam aktivitas berdiskusi dengan guru dan terdapat dua indikator dari keterampilan komunikasi, yaitu mempresentasikan informasi dan mengungkapkan argumen atau pendapat (Nahdi, 2019;Sagala, 2020;Tiffany, 2017), 3) Collaboration Skills merupakan keterampilan berkolaborasi menjadi salah satu kemampuan yang membantu peserta didik agar dapat menciptakan hubungan dengan orang lain serta bertanggung jawab untuk dirinya sendiri maupun untuk orang lain dan terdapat dua indikator dari keterampilan kolaborasi, yaitu berkompromi atau berdiskusi dan menunjukkan rasa hormat (Yusliani, 2019;Zubaidah S. , 2018), 4) Creativity and Innovation Skills merupakan keterampilan berpikir kreatif dan inovatif perlu dibiasakan untuk diterapkan pada peserta didik agar peserta didik terbiasa bersikap terbuka dan responsif dalam menemukan ataupun menyampaikan gagasan, ide, atau pendapat baru kepada orang lain dan terdapat tiga indikator dari keterampilan berpikir kreatif dan inovatif, yaitu rasa ingin tahu (curiosity), keluwesan (flexibility), dan keaslian (originality) (Yusliani, 2019;Zubaidah S. , 2019).…”
