Abstract

This study aims to examine in depth the effect of the RME approach on students' understanding and communication abilities and mathematical dispositions compared to ordinary learning. This research is an experiment with pretest-posttest control group design. The population in this study were all third-grade elementary school students in West Bandung, while the sample was third-grade students from one elementary school in West Bandung Regency which was determined purposively. The research data will be analyzed using statistical test t, contingency coefficient test and test with statistics. The instrument used in this study is a test of mathematical understanding and communication skills and students' mathematical dispositions. Based on quantitative data analysis, it was concluded that: there was an achievement of the ability of mathematical understanding of elementary school students who learned using the RME approach, there is the achievement of mathematical communication skills of elementary school students whose learning uses the RME approach, teaching using the RME approach influences students' mathematical dispositions, there is no association between the ability of mathematical understanding with students' mathematical communication skills, there is no association between mathematical dispositions with students' mathematical understanding abilities, and there is no association between mathematical dispositions with students' mathematical communication skills.
