Realistic Influence Mathematica Education on Elementary School Students' Mathematical Problem Solving

Abstract

Research This aim For analyze influence Realistic Mathematics Education (RME) approach to ability solution problem mathematical student school basis . The research method used is a quasi- experiment with pretest- posttest control group design . Research sample consists of over 60 students class V in one of the school base in Bandung City, which is divided into two groups : group experiment ( using RME approach ) and groups control ( using learning conventional ). The instruments used in the form of test solution problem mathematically validated by experts and tested​ reliability (r = 0.84). The results of data analysis using the independent t-test show that there is difference significant between second group ( thitung = 3.96 > ttabel = 2.00, p < 0.05). The average increase score group experiment is 22.4 points , while group control only 12.1 points . Findings This show that RME approach in significant more effective in increase ability solution problem mathematical student compared to learning conventional . With involving real -world context and encourage involvement active students , RME is able strengthen understanding concepts and settlement strategies problem in a way meaningful . Implications from study This leading to the need for implementation approach contextual like RME in learning mathematics at the level school base .
