Optimizing Collaboration and Communication Skills of Pre-Service Biology Teachers Based on Cognitive Styles through Scientific Paper Tasks

Abstract

Collaboration and communication have become essential skills in biology learning today. This research aims to describe pre-service biology teacher students' collaboration and communication skills based on reflective and impulsive cognitive styles through scientific paper tasks. This research is designated employing exploratory research using quantitative and qualitative paradigms. The subjects were five reflective and five impulsive students. This study used a familiar figure-matching test to assess cognitive style and an observation sheet to evaluate collaboration and communication skills. The results reveal that impulsive students with high collaboration skills are more than 50%, while reflective students with high collaboration skills are less than 50%. Reflective and impulsive students show distinct strengths in various indicators of communication skills. This research concludes that impulsive students' collaboration skills are superior to those of reflective students. Based on the communication skills indicators, impulsive and reflective students each have different advantages in communication skills. The results have implications for improving the quality of pre-service biology teacher graduates. Pre-service biology teacher students who can write scientific papers will have their 21st-century skills trained. The 21st-century skills trained in writing scientific papers include collaboration and communication, critical thinking, creativity, and digital and information literacy. These 21st-century skills are essential for individuals, including teachers, to face complex problems in the global era.
