HUBUNGAN KETERAMPILAN KOMUNIKASI ABAD 21 DAN KETERAMPILAN PEMECAHAN MASALAH MAHASISWA PENDIDIKAN FISIKA

Abstract

Communication skills and problem solving skills are indispensable and must be trained to pre-service physics teachers in the 21st century. The purpose of this study was to analyze the relationship between communication skills and problem solving skills of physics education students at mechanics courses. The research subjects were 65 physics education students 2019/2020 academic year taking mechanics courses. The research instrument used communication skills observation sheet, case description test and an interview conducted by three observers. The results of data analysis showed positive correlation in medium category between communication skills and problem solving skills with a correlation coefficient value of 0.50. The contribution of communication skills to problem solving skills by 25%.
