The Effect of PjBLL Online Platform on Student Collaboration Skills and Basic Science Process Skills During the Covid-19 Pandemic

Abstract

The purpose of this research to describe the effect of Project Based Laboratory Learning (PjBLL) on collaboration skills and basic science process skills of students. This type of research is quasi-experimental with one group pretest-posttest design. The subjects of this study were 60 first year students from two different classes who were enrolled in the Basic Physics course at the Department of Chemistry, Universitas Negeri Surabaya Indonesia. The collaboration ability test on kinematics and particle dynamics was used to measure students’ collaboration skills, the basic science process skills test was used to measure students’ science process skills as a pre-test and post-test. The analysis of the results showed that students’ collaboration skills were complete on all indicators with gain scores in the high and sensitive categories, while basic science process skills were completed on all indicators with gain scores in the medium and high criteria. PjBLL Online platform can be used for lectures during the COVID-19 pandemic.
