The study population was all first year students (n=150) in academic year 2016/2017 Department of Biology, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, Universitas Negeri Makassar, Indonesia. The sample were 82 students chosen through simple random sampling. The data was collected by using questionnaire adapted from MAI (Metacognitive Awareness Inventory) and SEMLI-S (Self Efficacy and Metacognition Learning Inventory-Science), and the learning style questionnaire. The research data were analyzed descriptively. The results of the study showed that (1) the learning style of biology students were visual, auditory, combination, and kinesthetic, (2) the metacognitive skills of biology students were well developed and (3) the metacognitive skills of biology students with visual, auditory, kinesthetic, and combinations were generally well developed. It was concluded that, biology students have the same metacognitive skill in all learning styles. The implications of these findings indicate that metacognitive skills of students need to be developed through learning process. ## Keywords - Metacognition - Kinesthetic learning - Mathematics education - Psychology - Style (visual arts) - Learning styles - Population - Cognitive style - Cognition - Medicine - Archaeology - History - Neuroscience - Environmental health --- Sumber: Discover Unhas — RIMS Universitas Hasanuddin.
