Application of Scientific Communication Work on Contextual Based to Improve Creative Thinking and Science Process Skills on Biological Education Students

Competence students about science process skills play an important role in the success of the process of learning science by the scientific method approach. Motivation is a mental boost that drives and directs human behavior, including motivation in learning activities to encourage someone to learn to achieve a desired goal. Contextual approach is an approach that allows students to strengthen, expand, and apply their academic knowledge and skills in various orders of life both inside and outside the campus. In addition, students are trained to be able to solve problems they encounter (Kunandar, 2007). The purpose of this study was to determine the ability to think creatively and Biology student science process skills FKIP Unpatti Ambon, which is taught using the contextual based communication scientific work in the subject of plant morphology. There are differences in the ability of creative thinking and process skills, which are taught using the contextual based communication of scientific work and conventional (informed discussion on the subject of Plant Morphology.
