Abstract

Pembelajaran kimia yang lengkap menuntut mahasiswa untuk memahami materi kimia dengan menghubungkan tiga level representasi, yaitu representasi makroskopik, simbolik, dan submikroskopik. Kemampuan menghubungkan ketiga level representasi tersebut disebut dengan model mental. Model mental terdiri atas model mental saintifik, sintetik, dan inisial. Dalam mengembangkan model mental, dibutuhkan kemampuan spasial. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi model mental dan kemampuan spasial mahasiswa pendidikan kimia tahun pertama dan tahun ketiga Universitas Mataram dan menganalisis hubungan antara model mental dan kemampuan spasial mahasiswa. Ini merupakan penelitian eksperimen semu. Data dianalisis menggunakan uji beda (uji t) dan uji regresi linear. Berdasarkan uji t, tidak ada perbedaan model mental antara mahasiswa tahun pertama dan tahun kedua dengan nilai signifikansi sebesar 0,861>0,05. Selain itu, kemampuan spasial mereka juga tidak berbeda, yaitu dengan nilai signifikansi sebesar 0,328>0,05. Terdapat hubungan antara model mental dan kemampuan spasial mahasiswa. Sebagian besar mahasiswa tahun pertama (81,25%) dan tahun ketiga (79,5) memiliki kemampuan spasial sangat rendah. Selain itu, model mental dari sebagain besar mahasiswa tahun pertama dan tahun ketiga juga masih pada level paling rendah, yaitu level inisial. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa pembelajaran di kelas belum mampu meningkatkan kemampuan spasial dan model mental mahasiswa.
