ENGLISH: Students’ inadequate 21st century skills are the outcome of teacher-centered learning activities. Previous studies have shown that collaborative inquiry learning improved their generic skills. This experimental research investigated the effect of Local Wisdom-Based ELSII Learning Model (LWB-ELSII) on students’ problem- solving skills (PSS) and their communication skills (CS). Cluster random sampling was carried to select 56 preservice Islamic teachers at Islamic State University of Mataram as samples. The PSS Essay Test (PSET) and the Communication Skills Test (CST) were employed. The data were analyzed using Mann-Whitney U test and Spearman’s rho correlation at significance level of .05. The results showed that: 1) there were significant differences in the PSS and CS between the experimental and control groups in favour of experimental group students, and 2) there was a positive and significant correlation between the two dependent variables. It is recommended that lecturers apply LWB-ELSII as an alternative solution in improving students’ performance.

基于本地智慧的ELSII学习模式对伊斯兰职前教师解决问题和沟通技巧的影响

英语：学生在 21 世纪技能不足是以教师为中心的学习活动的结果。先前的研究表明，协作探究学习提高了他们的通用技能。本实验研究调查了基于本地智慧的 ELSII 学习模型 (LWB-ELSII) 对学生解决问题技能 (PSS) 和沟通技能 (CS) 的影响。通过整群随机抽样，选取了马塔兰伊斯兰州立大学的 56 名职前伊斯兰教师作为样本。采用了 PSS 论文测试 (PSET) 和沟通技巧测试 (CST)。使用 Mann-Whitney U 检验和 Spearman's rho 相关性分析数据，显着性水平为 0.05。结果表明：1) 实验组和对照组的 PSS 和 CS 存在显着差异，有利于实验组学生，2) 两个因变量之间存在显着正相关。建议讲师应用 LWB-ELSII 作为提高学生成绩的替代解决方案。
