Spatial ability is one of the abilities that should be mastered by students because daily human life requires it. Learning geometry that does not match the characteristics of students causes low spatial abilities. The purpose of this study was to determine the achievement and improvement of students’ spatial abilities after they participated in SketchUp-aided generative learning. This research is quasi-experimental research to compare students who were receiving SketchUp-aided generative learning and direct learning. The research instrument was a test of spatial ability, and the subjects were students of class XII high school. The results showed that spatial ability increased after receiving SketchUp-Aided generative learning. The results of this study contribute to providing suggestions for teachers to apply SketchUp-aided generative learning.
