How are Student’s Spatial Intelligence for Geometry Problem-Solving?

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to describe the problem-solving skills students viewed from spatial intelligence. Problemsolving skills are an important component that students must have to solve a problem appropriately. This study is a qualitative study in which the main instrument is the researcher itself. The subject selection technique in this study used purposive sampling. The research data were obtained from the test data description and interview results. Data analysis techniques used in data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion. The validity of the data is obtained through the validation and triangulation method. This study shows that students with high spatial intelligence can identify a given problem, create a plan to solve the problem, and implement a problem-solving plan. Students with intelligence can understand a given problem, make a problem-solving plan, but in implementation. It is still not appropriate. Students with low spatial intelligence cannot identify problems precisely and do not create a completion plan, resulting in not implementing a completion plan.

Characteristics of Students' Mathematical Problem Solving Abilities in Open-Ended-Based Virtual Reality Game Learning

“…Students can also solve problem problems using models or plans that they have previously made. This is in line with research Prihandika and Saputro (2021) states that students are able to draw up a completion plan or make a mathematical model and implements a completion plan. That all students studied are able to choose and implement strategies to solve mathematical problems and / or outside mathematics from the problems in the game.…”

Analisis Proses Pemecahan Masalah Matematika Berdasarkan Multiple Intelligences Siswa SMK Negeri 2 Tuban

“…Kemudian, siswa dengan kecerdasan spasial tinggi dapat mengidentifikasi suatu masalah, membuat rencana untuk memecahkan masalah, dan mengimplementasikan rencana pemecahan masalah. Siswa dengan kecerdasan spasial rendah tidak dapat mengidentifikasi masalah secara tepat dan tidak membuat rencana penyelesaian, sehingga tidak melaksanakan rencana penyelesaian (Prihandika et al, 2021). Dalam memecahkan masalah, siswa visual-spasial dan logis-matematis dapat menghubungkan informasi yang diberikan untuk memperoleh informasi baru.…”
