Study on students ability of visual-spatial on general biology course

Multiple intelgence is a ability to solve problems and create a products that have cultural values, such as kinesthetic intelligence, interpersonal, verbal linguistics, logical mathematical, naturalist, intrapersonal, visual spatial, and musical. The focus of this research is to know one of the intelligence held by the students of spatial visual intelligence in general biology course. The sample of research is the students of the first semester in year 2017/2018 (N=20). There are two treatments given to the student that is making cell parts both in animal cells and plant cells according a prior knowledge, and concept. The analysis data was statistic descriptive by calculate the mean value and grouping it into three categories that is high, medium, and low. The result of mean obtained for prior knowledge is cell shape 1,2 and 1,6 for a concept. The categorization as follows: prior knowledge about cell shape is high (0%), medium (15%), and low (85%), while on understanding of cells according a concept is high (5%), medium (60%), and low (35%). There is a change on concept understanding in making cell shape once they learn the actual cell shape.
