This study aimed to distinguish collaboration skills between students who learned using concept map-assisted problem-based learning and mind-map-assisted problem-based learning (PBL) models. The type of research is quasi-experimental. The sample was 59 out of 183 Department of Biology, State University of Malang students enrolled in the Plant Physiology course in the odd semester of the 2021/2022 school year taken randomly. The data was analysed using a t-test. The results showed that students' collaboration skills were significantly different in the two models; collaboration skills were better for students who studied with the PBL model assisted by concept maps compared to those who studied with PBL assisted with mind maps. There is no significant correlation between students' mind maps and their ability to develop concept maps. We conclude that the PBL-assisted concept map model is feasible to apply to improve student collaboration skills. © 2024 Author(s).
