Abstract

Type of research is pre-experimental research that aims to determine the effectiveness of mathematics learning through applying the approach Realistic Mathematics Education (RME) in increasing the ability of Pedagogical Content Knowledge (PCK) mathematics teachers. This study refers to three indicators of learning effectiveness: completeness of the student learning outcomes, the student activities, and the positive student responses to the implementation of learning through the RME approach. The research design used is the one-shot case study, namely pre-experimental research carried out with one group to be given treatment and post-test (final test). The experimental unit was class VIII.B of SMP Guppi Samata Gowa with 18 students. The results showed that: (1) the students’ average score in mathematics learning outcomes after the RME approach was applied was 81.29 with a standard deviation of 10.17. These results showed that 16 the students (88.89%) reached KKM and 2 the students (11.11%) did not reach KKM, which means that in the classical learning completeness has been reached, the result of inferential analysis test one sample test obtained P-value <, i.e., 0.000 < 0.05 then Ho is rejected, (2) The average percentage of the frequency of student activities actively involved in learning is 78% has reached good criteria, (3) The average percentage of the students’ positive responses to learning mathematics is 89.68% and only 10.32% of negative responses. From the research results above, it can be concluded that learning mathematics is effective through applying the RME approach to class VIII students of Guppi Samata Islamic boarding school Gowa. The effectiveness of learning with the RME approach can improve teachers’ pedagogical abilities and content knowledge (PCK) with the experiments that have been carried out.
