Abstract

Mathematics learning can stimulate the students to think critically and logically for the problem related to the real life. The initiation to mathematics learning for the first time at elementary. The aim of the research was to find out the need for cooperative learning model with Realistic Mathematics Education (RME) approach for mathematics learning in elementary school. This research was performed by descriptive qualitative approaches. The subject of research involved teacher and student respondents in the fifth grade of elementary schools in Karangpandan Sub District. An interview was performed to gain information from teachers and students. This techniques can reveal the implementation of mathematics learning in the classroom, also as a documentation to find out the mathematics learning outcome of students. This research suggested that cooperative learning model with RME approach can be used to improving the students’ mathematics learning outcome. Due to some reasons: (1) most of the teacher still using conventional learning model; (2) students involvement in mathematics learning was still low, and (3) teachers didn't connect mathematics learning to students’ real-life context.
