This study was driven by low study skills of students in their early semester. Based on the preliminary survey through an observation sheet, it was found that only 8% of the students had good time management, 19% had good concentration, 11% had good note taking skill, 17% had good intensive reading skill, and 14% had exam preparation skill. The purpose of this study was to improve students’ study skills through the implementation of CREAM strategy. A total of 36 first semester students studied at STKIP Kristen Wamena, Jayawijaya, Papua, served as research subjects. This study was a classroom action research which was conducted in two cycles.

Overall, the average percentage of study skills of students in the first cycle in good and very good categorieswas 35%. Meanwhile, in the second cycle, the average percentage of studentsstudy skills in good and very good categories was 56 %.
