Abstract

This study aims to describe the mathematical spatial ability of students in solving mathematical problems. The research method used is the descriptive qualitative research method. Data collection techniques were carried out through tests, interviews, and documentation. The results of this study indicate that (1) students with a high level of mathematical spatial ability category can meet all the indicators of spatial ability that researchers use in this study (2) students with a category of moderate level of mathematical spatial ability can meet two of the four spatial ability indicators that researchers use. in this study (3) students with the low level of mathematical spatial ability, the category had difficulty fulfilling several indicators of spatial ability that the researchers used in this study.
