The rapid growing of knowledge economy that relies on the advancement of ICT has changed the trend of employment and social life. Employers in this century are looking for competitive, innovative and global employees. As a consequence, students should be prepared to acquire 21 st-century skills so that they can be successful in the employment and social life. Before that, this study has examined the mastery level of the 21 st-century skills amongst science foundation programme students. This study has also investigated the relationships between former school location and gender on the mastery levels of the 21 st-century skills. A total of 240 students from two foundation colleges participated in this quantitative study. The findings indicated that the mastery level of the 21 stcentury skills was high. All subdomains of the 21 st-century skills were at a high mastery level. However, economy literacy as one of digital era literacy subdomains showed a moderate level. Meanwhile, creativity as one of the inventive thinking subdomains also showed a moderate level, and interactive communication as one of effective communication subdomains also showed a moderate level. Findings also revealed that there were no significant differences between former school location and gender on the mastery levels of the 21 st-century skills amongst science foundation programme students.

“…Bagi menjayakan kemahiran abad ke-21, guru-guru mesti mahir dalam menyepadukan proses pembelajaran melalui STEM. Menurut Arsad, Osman, and Soh (2011), kemahiran abad ke-21 menekankan kepada pengunaan teknologi, kreativiti, pemikiran kritis, berkemampuan interpersonal, dan kemapuan sosial yang sangat baik. Pembelajaran STEM merupakan pendekatan pengajaran yang menyepadukan empat disiplin ilmu secara bersamaan iaitu sains, teknologi, kejuruteraan, dan matematik (Ceylan & Ozdilek, 2015;Eroglu, 2016) merupakan salah satu jawapan terhadap kemahiran yang mesti dimiliki guruguru dalam proses pembelajaran saat ini.…”

“…Beberapa kajian lepas seperti kajian Eroglu (2016), Pearson and Pearson (2017), dan Kyriakides, Creemers, and Antoniou (2009) mendapati beberapa isu dan cabaran dalam pembelajaran STEM berkaitan dengan kualiti guru-guru di sekolah menengah, iaitu pertama: guru-guru masih lemah dalam menyepadukan STEM dalam PdP, kedua: pengetahuan kandungan STEM daripada guru-guru adalah masih lemah, dan ketiga: kesukaran guru-guru dalam membuat hubungan yang sesuai dalam PdP menggunakan STEM. Ketiga-tiga masalah tersebut perlu dikaji secara mendalam bagi menggalakkan kualiti guru-guru dalam STEM (Arsad et al, 2011).…”

The latest approach in the learning process of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) has become the most recent trend in this decade. STEM not only for processing and producing the talents with expertise in education but also acts as a catalyst to the economic growth and national development. However, there are still impending issues associated with the usage of STEM in secondary schools, which one of the main issues is related with the quality of teachers. Previous studies were used as a reference to discuss respective issues. Previous studies showed that (i) effective curriculum, (ii) improvement of teacher’s motivation and mentoring in the usage of STEM are the foundation for the enhancement of teacher’s quality in the teaching of STEM.

“…Selain itu inovasi dalam desain pembelajaran dapat dijadikan alternatif cara untuk meningkatkan kemampuan berkomunikasi siswa. Hal ini ditunjukkan dengan hasil penelitian yang menyebutkan bahwa integrasi pembelajaran yang berpusat pada siswa dan pengembangan metode pembelajaran yang inovatif serta kreatif oleh guru mampu memenuhi persyaratan yang diminta pada kemampuan abad 21 yang terfokus pada penguasaan teknologi global untuk berkomunikasi dalam menghadapi tantangan dan kompetisi (Arsad et al, 2011).…”

The purpose of this research was to analyze the biology materials of the eleventh grade on the material of the human excretion system on the potential of empowering students' communication skills in one of the Senior High School in Madiun Regency. The research uses the descriptive method. The Technique of collecting data with teaching material is observed potency of empowering its communication skill directly based on communication skill assessment instrument covering twelve indicators which are divided on the four aspects namely expression aspect, evaluation, response, and negotiation. The teaching materials that were analyzed included two biology books from two different publishers, especially the material of human excretion system in Basic Competence 3.9 and 4.9 from 2013 curriculum. Data analyzed uses descriptive quantitative analysis. The result of analysis shows that the potential of empowerment of communication skill in teaching materials is still low, it's indicated by the low of indicator and the low percentage of indicator that emerged, from the twelve indicators only four indicators that emerged: the first indicator 27,3%, the third indicator 18,2%, the eighth indicator 27,3%, and the twelfth indicator 27,3%. Based on the results of the analysis can be concluded that the biology materials eleventh grade on the material excretion system used in one of the Senior High School in Madiun Regency has not the potential to empower students communication skills. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis bahan ajar biologi kelas XI pada materi sistem ekskresi manusia terhadap potensi pemberdayaan kemampuan berkomunikasi siswa pada salah satu SMA Negeri di Kabupaten Madiun. Penelitian menggunakan metode deskriptif. Teknik pengambilan data dengan materi bahan ajar dicermati potensi pemberdayaan kemampuan berkomunikasinya secara langsung berdasarkan instrumen penilaian kemampuan berkomunikasi yang meliputi dua belas indikator yang terbagi pada empat aspek yaitu aspek ekspresi, evaluasi, respon, dan negosiasi. Bahan ajar yang dianalisis meliputi dua buku biologi dari dua penerbit yang berbeda khususnya materi sistem ekskresi manusia pada Kompetensi Dasar 3.9 dan 4.9 kurikulum 2013. Analisis data secara deskriptif kuantitatif. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa potensi pemberdayaan kemampuan berkomunikasi dalam bahan ajar masih rendah, hal ini ditunjukkan dengan sedikitnya kemunculan indikator dan rendahnya persentase indikator yang muncul, dari dua belas indikator hanya empat indikator yang muncul yaitu indikator pertama 27,3%, indikator ketiga 18,2%, indikator kedelapan 27,3%, dan indikator kedua belas 27,3%. Berdasarkan hasil analisis dapat disimpulkan bahwa bahan ajar biologi kelas XI pada materi sistem ekskresi manusia yang digunakan pada salah satu SMA Negeri di Kabupaten Madiun belum berpotensi memberdayakan kemampuan berkomunikasi siswa.
