The Implementation of Problem Based Learning Models in Improving the Generic Science Skills of Organic Chemistry On Teacher Candidates. This study was aimed at investigating the improvement of teacher candidate students generic skill through problem based learning model on organic chemistry reactions subject. It was conducted by using quasiexperimental design with the non-equivalent pretest post-test control group. The subject of this study was done to teacher candidate students who took organic chemistry reactions subject, which consist of experimental class was taught by using problem based learning and control class was taught by direct instruction. The data was collected by using generic science skill test in the form of multiple choice tests and was treated by using SPSS version 20. The result of the study shows the implementation of problem based learning can improve students' generic skills with indicator: logic consistency, abstraction, symbolic language, modelling, logical inference, cause-effect and scale understanding.
