KESULITAN BELAJAR BIOLOGI DITINJAU DARI KEMAMPUAN AWAL DAN KEMANDIRIAN BELAJAR PADA SISWA KELAS II SEMESTER GASAL SMU NEGERI 4 SURAKARTA TAHUN PELAJARAN 2OO3/2OO4

The goals of this research were knowing difficulties of biological learning in a point of view of personal pre-academic ability and self-learning processes of second grade of SMUN 4. The research was carried out by collecting the data by using the ex post facto method, Cluster random sampling technique was used when sampling. Two ways Anava was used to analyze the obsented data. The result showed that there are significant impacts of personal pre acadetnic ability, and self learning processes toward the dificulties of biological learning. Those can be seen from the value of F observed (0, 05:2, 30)=12,667 > F table(0,05:2,30)=3,32. F observed (0, 05:2, 30)=12,667 > F table(0,05:2,30)=3,32. Key words: The difficulty of biological learning, personal pre-academic ability, self-learning processes.
