The undergraduate curriculum in Indonesia generally requires students to take a research methods course as a prerequisite course for the preparation of scientific reports. The objective of this course is to teach students how to present research results both orally and in writing using the styles and forms of each university. However, this course is not popular among students because the material is complex and technical. As a result, there is a gap between learning outcomes and their application when students prepare scientific reports. Improving pedagogy and teaching interventions through student-developed research projects is important in complementing lectures. The purpose of this study was to analyze the improvement of students' ability in writing scientific reports through research method courses using problem based learning (PBL).
This research was a case study to report the integration of scientific report writing in research methods courses through PBL at the Universitas Islam Bandung in Indonesia. PBL was implemented by involving students in research-related tasks with the following stages: writing research questions, determining the research design, collecting data, analyzing data, and presenting research results.
The research results showed that there was an increase in scientific writing skills in the good category. Normalized gain for indicators of increasing accuracy using research report formats, suitability for using literature and research methods is 0.064 and 0.209, including the low category, and the plagiarism level is 0.509, including the medium category.
This finding implies that assigning students to write scientific reports using PBL in the research method classroom is useful for improving learning outcomes, presentation, reasoning, communication, ambiguous problem-solving, and reducing plagiarism. The findings of this study strengthen the findings of previous researchers, namely increase students' abilities in using formatting to prepare scientific reports, using appropriate literature, mastering research materials as well as reducing the level of plagiarism.
印度尼西亚的本科课程通常要求学生先修研究方法课程，为准备科学报告做准备。该课程的目标是教授学生如何使用每所大学的风格和形式，以口头和书面形式呈现研究结果。然而，由于该课程的内容复杂且技术性强，因此不受学生欢迎。结果，学生在准备科学报告时，学习成果与其应用之间存在差距。通过学生开发的研究项目来改善教学法和教学干预措施对于补充讲座非常重要。本研究的目的是分析通过基于问题的学习（PBL）提高学生在使用研究方法撰写科学报告方面的能力。
本研究是印度尼西亚万隆伊斯兰大学将 PBL 整合到研究方法课程中以撰写科学报告的案例研究。通过让学生参与与研究相关的任务来实施 PBL，包括以下阶段：撰写研究问题、确定研究设计、收集数据、分析数据和呈现研究结果。
研究结果表明，在良好类别中，科学写作技能有所提高。使用研究报告格式提高准确性的指标的归一化增益、使用文献和研究方法的适当性分别为 0.064 和 0.209，包括低类别，以及剽窃水平为 0.509，包括中等类别。
这一发现意味着在研究方法课堂上让学生使用 PBL 撰写科学报告有助于提高学习成果、表达、推理、沟通、解决歧义问题和减少剽窃。本研究的结果加强了先前研究人员的发现，即提高学生使用格式准备科学报告的能力、使用适当的文献、掌握研究材料以及降低剽窃水平。
