摘要:This study aims to: 1) Know the results of the spatial ability test students taught with Realistic Mathematics Education Learning 2) find out the trajectory of thinking of junior high school students to solve spatial problems after Learning Realistic Mathematics Education. The population in this study were all students of Ali Imron Middle School Medan and the sample in this study were 31 student grade VIII SMP students. This research includes descriptive research using a qualitative approach. The research instrument was a test of spatial ability in solving geometry problems and interview guidelines. The subjects for the interview were chosen as many as 6 people based on their level of mathematical spatial ability. The results showed that: 1) The level of mathematical spatial ability in low-ability students has the highest proportion of as many as 12 students, followed by high-ability students 10 students and medium-ability students as many as 9 students. So, the percentage level of mathematical spatial ability of students with "low" abilities is 38.7%, ability is "medium" as much as 29%, and ability is "high" as much as 32.3%. 2) The stages of the creative thinking process possessed by students as the results and findings in this study are orientation, preparation, incubation, illumination and verification that will be skipped as students' point of thinking.
