ABSTRAKSI: Tujuan penelitian ini untuk mengetahui kesulitan belajar Matematika dan perbedaan peningkatan kemampuan berpikir logis siswa, yang diberi perlakuan pembelajaran LIT (Local Instruction Theory) dengan pendekatan PMR (Pendidikan Matematika Realistik) dengan siswa yang hanya diberi pendekatan PMR saja. Metode penelitian berupa “design research”, dengan subjek penelitian berjumlah 184 siswa SMP (Sekolah Menengah Pertama), yang berasal dari peringkat sekolah yang berbeda. Hasil penelitian menunjukan bahwa kesulitan belajar yang dialami siswa SMP adalah karena sulit dalam memahami variabel, koefisien, dan konstanta; sulit membaca maksud soal, sulit menyusun strategi dalam menyelesaikan soal; sulit dalam proses perhitungan; dan masih salah dalam penulisan persamaan. Peningkatan kemampuan berpikir logis siswa yang pembelajarannya menggunakan LIT dalam PMR ternyata lebih tinggi daripada siswa yang pembelajarannya menggunakan PMR saja. Perlu kajian lanjutan untuk melihat pengaruh penggunaan LIT dalam PMR terhadap kemampuan Matematis lainnya dan pada berbagai level sekolah.KATA KUNCI: Local Instruction Theory; Kesulitan Belajar; Pendidikan Matematika Realistik; Siswa SMP; Berpikir Logis. ABSTRACT: “The Local Instruction Theory in Realistic Mathematics Education for Improving the Ability of Logical Thinking”. The objective of this study was to determine the Mathematical learning difficulties and differences increase students' ability to think logically whose treated by learning approach LIT (Local Instruction Theory) with RME (Realistic Mathematics Education) and students treated by PMR learning approach only. The research method in the form of design research, with research subjects totaling 184 of JHS (Junior High School) students, derived from different school rankings. The research findings show that the difficulties of learning experienced by JHS students were caused by difficult to understand the variables, coefficients, and constants; difficult to read, to interpret the intent problems, to strategize in solving problems; difficult in the process of calculation; and still wrong in writing the equation. The increasing of logical thinking ability of students in learning to use LIT with RME is higher than students whose learning by using RME only. A further study is required to see the effect of using LIT with RME towards other Mathematical skills and at various school levels.KEY WORD: Local Instruction Theory; Difficulty Learning; Realistic Mathematics Education; Junior High School Students; Logical Thinking.    About the Authors: Tatang Supriatna adalah Mahasiswa SPs UPI (Sekolah Pasca Sarjana, Universitas Pendidikan Indonesia), Jalan Dr. Setiabudhi No.229 Bandung 40154, Jawa Barat, Indonesia.

The number pattern is one of mathematics topics taught for junior high school students that relate between arithmetic and algebra domain. This topic bridges arithmetical and algebraic thinking. Therefore, the learning for this topic should be designed meaningfully. This research aims to design a learning sequence on the number patterns using principles of Realistic Mathematics Education (RME). To do this, we used design research method, particularly the preliminary design phase, with the following three steps. First, literature study was conducted to collect student difficulties in the learning of number patterns, relevant studies, and the theory of RME. Second, we observed Indonesian mathematics textbooks addressing the number patterns to see a learning sequence for this topic. Finally, we designed a learning sequence for the number patterns using the RME principles, particularly the reality principle, level principle, and intertwinement principle. The result of this research includes the learning sequence for the number patterns according to the RME principles, which consists of three activities: relationship between patterns and numbers; exploration of numbers; and generalization of number patterns. We conclude that the three principles of RME are fruitful for designing a meaningful learning sequence for the topic of number patterns.

Learning mathematics has a significant contribution to the students’ daily activities, one of which is on social arithmetic topic. The implementation of social arithmetic, in general, is mostly found in buying-selling and banking activities. However, students still find difficulties in understanding this topic. It is because the teaching and learning activities still use a conventional approach, which restricts the students to imagine how it is implemented in daily life. Therefore, this paper aims to describe the innovative learning activities of social arithmetic among junior high school students using the Realistic Mathematics Education (RME) approach. This research was conducted in three meetings, and the researcher acted as the teacher in the class. The results showed that the innovative learning of social arithmetic using the RME approach and word problems could improve the students’ learning outcomes with an average score of 81.92% and 92.59% of the total of students scored above passing grade.

This study aims to analyze how the ability of mathematical communication and Self Efficacy by using Realistic Mathematics Education (RME) approach in junior high school students. The research method used is quasi-experimental using two classes, first class as experiment class and second class as control class. The experimental class uses the Realistic Mathematics Education (RME) approach while the control class uses conventional learning. In both classes, pretest and initial questionnaire were conducted to determine the initial ability of each class, and at the end of the two classes postest. The results of this study were processed and analyzed using Mann-Whitney test. The results showed that communication skills and self-efficacy of students whose learning using Realistic Mathematics education are better than those using conventional learning.

In general, junior high school students learn mathematics with an inductive pattern. However, the statements in mathematics are obtained through a deductive mindset. Therefore we need a learning approach that can accommodate students' thinking patterns. Mathematics adheres to the law of consistency which causes the structure of material in mathematics to be hierarchically arranged, interrelated, and has characteristics that have implications for determining strategies, approaches and the use of learning media. This article aims to review the theory of the Realistic Mathematics Education Approach (PMR). An approach that can make students involved in building their own concepts and models used through problem solving. The PMR discussion begins with the definition of PMR, the principles and characteristics of PMR, and the contribution of PMR in learning mathematics. Writing this article uses the literature review method which consists of books, journal articles, and other documents related to the topic of discussion. The results of the study found that Realistic Mathematics Education (PMR) is a mathematics learning innovation that is in accordance with the 2013 curriculum.The use of contexts and models, as well as the use of student contributions through discussions to discuss various linkages between mathematics material, makes this approach able to contribute to improving five general mathematical abilities. which includes: the ability to understand mathematics, problem solving, mathematical connections, mathematical communication, and mathematical reasoning.

Intersection and union concepts are crucial part of operation in sets, especially in solving word problems and creating the venn diagram. In fact, not a few students do fallacies in representing sets word problems into a sets operation, so they do mistakes in solving the problems. This study aims to investigate students’ thinking in learning intersection and union concept, specifically by using colored cards. The learning is designed under Realistic Mathematics Education (RME) approach and the principle used is emergent modeling. The method used in this study is design research. The subjects of this study is 25 students of the 7th grade junior high school, in which five of them were the focused group. The main findings in this study are description of students’ thinking while learning union and intersection using colored cards in the class, and any kinds of students’ ‘diagram venn’models. Keywords: design research, intersection, realistic mathematics education, union, venn diagram
