This research aims to find out the improvement of students' collaboration skills through discovery learning with a contextual approach and can be one step to prepare students' adaptive collaboration skills in the future. This research is quantitative research with a sample of 69 students taken using random sampling technique. Data were collected using collaboration skills observation sheets, questionnaires, and interviews.
