Abstract

This study aims to enhance students^ collaborative skills in physics learning. Process flow data was taken from 34 students (7 of them male students and 27 female students) in eleventh grade (17 age in average) at high school at Kuningan. Physics learning is carried out online through WhatsApp Groups with class settings in groups. The instrument used in this study was an observation sheet used by the teacher while monitoring student collaboration activities in WhatsApp Groups. Data were analyzed using Rasch analysis. The average student logit at the first meeting was -3.24, while at the second meeting it increased to +3.22. So it can be concluded that the application of Learning Cycle 7E-STEM online can improve students^ collaborative skills during the pandemic covid-19.
