Abstract
This study aims to determine the increase in verbal-linguistic intelligence of elementary students in solving mathematical problems by applying mathematics learning based on VBA PowerPoint (PPT) integrated with Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM). The method used in this study was quasi-experimental One Group Pretest-Posttest Design carried out in one of the elementary schools in Cimahi City. Data collection was collected using pretest and posttest for verbal-linguistic intelligence in solving mathematical problems and student questionnaires on VBA PPT and STEM. Based on data analysis of verbal-linguistic intelligence students in solving mathematical problems experienced a significant increase with VBA PPT-based learning integrated with STEM. The overall response of the students showed that almost all students stated that they were very happy with ICT-based learning such as VBA PPT integrated STEM, and they were more interactive and very memorable to gain experience following the stages of learning given to create high motivation and interest in learning.
