Teaching students English as a second or foreign language (ESL) in community programs has traditionally taught students the basic communication skills that they need to negotiate on everyday life. These elementary communication skills are insufficient for the preparation of English learners. Many jobs now require advanced communication skills and critical thinking skills. This article discusses some of the problems of teaching English in universities and identifies the difference between the project method and project-oriented learning. The studies conducted by well-known scientists studying the impact of project-oriented learning in ESL classes are also considered and the main advantages of using this approach are identified

Critical thinking skills are important to practice early on in elementary school. It is believed that STEM based education could  trigger the students to more critical. Individuals who have critical thinking skills will be able to communicate well. Many research results show that critical thinking skills can be stimulated by applying project-based learning in class. This research aims to describe critical thinking skills based on communication skills by using STEM-based Project-Based Learning. The research is a mixed-methods study. The population of this research consisted of fifth graders of Public Primary School 3 Pakis. The research instruments used were critical thinking skills tests, communication skills questionnaires and interview guidelines. The quantitative data was selected by purposive sampling technique. The qualitative data was based on the communication skills levels: high, moderate, and low. Based on the triangulation data it shows that students with high critical thinking skills reached the aspect of analyzing arguments; the moderate level could achieved simple aspects of explanation; while the lower level critical thinker only reaches the aspect of focusing questions. The STEM approach applied in project-based learning is able to encourage students to be able to communicate verbally and improve their critical thinking skills in solving problems.

Creative Thinking Ability

This study aims to determine differences in 21st century abilities, including critical thinking, creative thinking, communication skills, and collaboration skills, in 4 schools in the Yogyakarta region. This research is a comparative survey with a research sample of 60 students. The data collecting techniques used in interviews with questionnaires consist of 4 21st century abilities: critical thinking skills, creative thinking, communication skills, and collaboration skills. The results showed differences in 21st-century abilities between schools AR with RA, AR with TY, RA with TY, RA with RB, and TY with RB. This is proved by the t-test, where the sig.t value <0.05 is obtained in a row on the creative thinking ability of 0.001; 0.049; 0.00; 0.001; 0.024.

The Impact

Project-based Learning using video is being used at the University of Yogyakarta in order to examine the impact on students' thinking skills. The Paired Sample t-test analytic method was employed in this study to conduct a quasi-experiment, which is described in detail below. The findings revealed that: 1) the average increase from the pretest score to the posttest score was 4.55 in the experimental class and 3.41 in the control class, and 2) a statistically significant difference in the average increase was observed in the experimental class when the Project-based learning model was used in the classroom. The experimental class uses Project-based Learning, 3) the data in the experimental class is 0.097 (pretest) and 0.062 (posttest). In contrast, the data in the control class is 0.083 (pretest) and 0.064 (posttest), 4) the results of the hypothesis test revealed a significance level of 0. 007 in the experimental class and 0.016 in the control class, both of which were less than the significance level of 0.005, so that H0 was rejected and H1 was accepted. According to the findings of this study, there appears to be an effect of applying the Project-based learning model on students' critical thinking skills in social studies classes. PjBL (project-based learning) models that include video can help students substantially enhance their critical thinking skills.

Reform of the education system in universities is needed to improve the quality of graduates according to 21st-century competencies. The purpose of this study was to enhance the competence of chemistry graduates by applying a project-based learning model through the application of laboratory quality procedures (PBL-ALQP). The PBL-ALQP model has been used for the chemical analysis instrumentation experiment and was carried out in two stages. In the preliminary stage, student activities in working solutions preparation and conducting instrumentation analysis were observed to measure the achievement level of necessary laboratory skills and instrumentation analysis skills, respectively. In project work, students in groups were given a project to solve problems related to instrumentation analysis. By referring to the scientific articles that they must look for, students must collaboratively be able to compile project designs, implement projects, report project results by implementing laboratory quality procedures so that the results of the analysis carried out can be trusted and valid. Through authentic assessment, student activity was observed to measure the achievement level of critical thinking skills, communication skills, and scientific work abilities. The achievement level of basic laboratory skills, instrumentation analysis skills, critical thinking skills, communication skills, and scientific work abilities of chemistry students are in high categories. The results showed that PBL-ALQP model could be used to improve the competence of chemistry graduates.

The Difference

This research aims to determine the difference of students' critical thinking ability between class which get Project Based Learning (PjBL) method and expository method. The method use experimental method with factorial design 2x2. The research subjects are class X-IPS 1 as an experimental class consists of 32 students and class X-IPS 2 as a control class consists of 32 students. The data collection techniques use test and questionnaires. While, the data analysis technique uses two way Anova. From the result of data analysis, PjBL method is more effective in improving students� critical thinking ability compared with expository method. However, there is a difference in critical thinking skills, where students with high motivation levels are more effective than students with low motivation. For students who have high motivation but use PjBL method, it is better when compared with students who have high motivation but use expository methods in the control class. There is an interaction between learning methods with learning motivation in affecting the students� critical thinking ability. Therefore, it is recommended for teacher to use PjBL method on cooperative material. In PjBL method, teachers play an important role in the implementation of the learning process for it requires mastery of materials and good class management and students should actively participate in project execution activities to make learning more meaningful.
