AbstractThe interaction time of students who did spatial ability tests in a virtual reality environment is analyzed. The spatial ability test completion times of 240 and 61 students were measured. A desktop display as well as the Gear VR were used by the former group and by the latter one, respectively. Logistic regression analysis was used to investigate the relationship between the probability of correct answers and completion times, while linear regression was used to evaluate effects and interactions of following factors on test completion times: the users’ gender and primary hand, test type and device used. The findings were that while the completion times are not significantly affected by the users’ primary hand, other factors have significant effects on them: they are decreased by the male gender in itself, while they are increased by solving Mental Rotation Tests or by using the Gear VR. The largest significant increment in interaction time in virtual reality during spatial ability tests is when Mental Rotation Tests are accomplished by males with the Gear VR, while the largest significant decrease in interaction time is when Mental Cutting Tests are completed with a desktop display.

The purpose of this study are to investigate and to describe the gain of students‘ spatial ability through Geometry teaching and learning by using a dynamic geometry software, Cabri 3D. This study was a quasi experimental research with not equivalent control group design. Direct instruction was implemented in control group otherwise Geometry teaching and learning with using Cabri 3D was implemented in experimental group. The population of this study are all of the eight grade of junior high school students in one of the SMP Negeri in Padangsidimpuan City. The sample of this study were two groups of eighth grade. The sample has been choosed with using purposif sample technique. The instruments of this study were spatial ability test, quationere, observation sheet and interview. The test was analysed quantitatively and non test was analyzed qualitatively in order to answer the  the hypotesa, the gain of students’ spatial ability who has studied and lerant with using Cabri 3D is better than direct instruction.

Spatial ability is closely related to the learning of geometry, such as helping students in solving geometry problems. This descriptive qualitative research aims to find out the profile of spatial ability of students in solving geometry problems in accordance with spatial ability indicator that has been prepared that is spatial perception, spatial visualization, mental rotation, spatial relation, and spatial orientation reviewed based on gender differences and students with math skills.The subjects of this study were 6 people consisting of 3 men with high, moderate, and low ability level and 3 women with high, moderate and low ability level. The determination of the subject is done by giving a math test. Instrument in the research is a test of math ability, spatial ability test, and interview guidance. Subjects were given spatial ability tests and interviews to obtain data and then analyzed the data collected. Based on the results of the analysis, it is found that high-ability male students and high-ability female students have relatively equal ability. Furthermore for the capable male students having all the spatial abilities. While female students are capable of not having the ability to spatially rotate the mind (mental rotation).
