ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
First and foremost, I would like to praise and thank God, the almighty, who has
granted countless blessing, knowledge, and opportunity to the writer, so that I have been
finally able to accomplish the thesis.
Apart from the efforts of me, the success of this thesis depends largely on the
encouragement and guidelines of many others. I take this opportunity to express my gratitude
to the people who have been instrumental in the successful completion of this thesis.
The writer hardly knows where to start expressing the gratitude but for sure the
gratitude goes to all those who have assisted her in the process of completing this thesis. It
would be impossible to list all names but several people deserve her sincere and special
thanks.
I would like to show my greatest appreciation to Dra. Martina A. Napitupulu, M.Sc,
as the thesis supervisor. I can’t say thank you enough for her tremendous support and help. I
feel motivated and encouraged every time I attend her meeting. Without her encouragement
and guidance this thesis would not have materialized.
She gratefully acknowledges the deepest gratitude to Drs. Tri Harsono, M.Si., the
head of Biology Department, Prof. Dr. Herbert Sipahutar M.Si., M.Sc., the coordinator of
Bilingual Program, and Mr. Samsuddin for his administrative assistance.
Her enormous appreciation is addressed to Dr. Rer nat Binari Manurung, M.Si.,
Syarifuddin,M.Sc,Ph.D., and Dra. Meida Nugrahalia, M.Sc as her examiners, for the valuable
inputs to be included in this thesis and generously spent precious time in giving the guidance,
encouragement, suggestion, and comments for this thesis.
She is indebted to Dr. Hasruddin,M.Pd as evaluator for her research instruments, for
their constructive comments and suggestion for the improvement of this study. She also in
enormous intellectual debt to all lecturers of Biology Education Bilingual Program, who has
become her inspiration during the academic years and also during the completion of this
thesis.
Special thanks are extended to Alberto Colia, M.Pd., headmaster of SMA Negeri 1
Berastagi, Biology teacher of grade eleven science class, Drs. Bokti Tarigan for the
cooperation during research. I am grateful for his constant support and help.
Finally, she will forever be indebted to her beloved parents Kadir Saragih and Rasmi
br Bukit., for having given her unfailing support and encouragement during the academic
year and the completion of this thesis, her lovely brother and sister, Rianatalia Saragih and
Iman Saragih for always trying to keep her on track whenever and whatever problems she
have to overcome.
Last but not least, the guidance and support received from all her best friend Sri
Lestari, Keasy, Winny, Meti, Christina, aisah, Laurent, Noviyanti, Siti, Debora, Vegi, Yunita,
Mayen, Syahriani, Sukma, Doyar, Qije, Lastria and all friends from Biology Bilingual
Program Year 2008 for their friendship and cooperation.
It would be difficult to find adequate words to convey how much she owes the people.
Lots of love and thank to all of you.
May God bless us.

ABSTRACT
This quasy experiment research aims to investigate the influence of Genius
Learning Strategy on the student’s achievements in Human Reproductive System
topic. The research was conducted in class XI IPA SMA Negeri 1 Berastagi
academic year 2011/2012. The population of this research is 160 students and
samples are randomly sampled consisting of 30 students as an experimental class
(XI-IPA 4) and 26 students of control class (XI-IPA 5). 30 items of multiple
choice test were used, and validated before they were applied.
The result shows that pretest in experimental and control class are
(50,97±11,39) and (50,8±11,87). t test reveals t calculated (0.0385) < t table (2,006); ά
= 0,05. Prestest has no significant effect in the student’s preliminary knowledge.
In the contrary, postest shows different result (experimental class : 83,10±8,67;
control class: 73,73±8,83). t test reveals that t calculated (4,15) > t table (1,673). This
findings states that treatments has signnificant effects on the student’s
acheievement in Biology. It is advisible that Genius Learning Strategy is
incorporated in the learning process especially in teaching Biology.
