The research was due to the fact that students’ outcome in learning biology was considered to be low. Students learned inactively, the learning process was teacher-centered, and the student had lack of interaction. One possible way to copewith the problems was to implement Generative Learning Strategy during teaching and learning process. The research aimed and finding out influence of the implementation of Generative Learning strategy toward students’ biology learning outcomes at SMP N 5 Pariaman grade VIII.
