RME, SLR, mathematical skillsAbstract
The main goal of learning mathematics is that students have the full range of mathematical skills to pursue higher education and solve problems in everyday life. An approach that can be used is Realistic Mathematics Education (RME). RME is an approach in learning mathematics using situations that contain real experiences or problems. This research aims to define RME, describe the principles and characteristics of RME, and the roles of RME in Indonesia. The method used is Systematic Literature Review (SLR). The result of this study is that the researcher found that RME helps the students to connect mathematics in everyday life so they can improve their mathematical skills as well, and it can help ‘slow learners’ to understand mathematics’ concepts. In addition, RME also can increase students’ affective domain, such as learning independence, self-efficacy, and self-confidence.
