Research objective isto investigate how is the development of oral science communications skills of undergraduate students inEnvironmental learning by using STEM learning approaches. The method of this research is qualitativeresearch by the data taken from observation and teaching learning video recording transcriptions. Thetranscription is coded by the assessment of science communication rubrics adapted from BaltimoreUniversity for oral science communication. The data are taken from students’ presentation activities inenvironmental courses. This research result shows that responsiveness indicators is 88,3%, multimediasupported as technology skills is 83,3%, and conclusions indicators is 50,0%. It could be concluded thatSTEM learning approaches could be constructed students’ oral communications skills. Responsiveness andmultimedia support of oral communications skills indicators are outperformed than conclusion as the leastperformed of oral communications skills.
