META ANALYSIS: REALISTIC MATHEMATICS EDUCATION (RME) IN IMPROVING STUDENT’S MATHEMATICAL PROBLEM SOLVING ABILITIES

Ability breakdown problem is the ability that must be owned by participants to educate . Research This aims to analyze an article journal with the theme influence of learning models in RME in increase the ability breakdown problems in mathematical participants educate. Research This uses method meta analysis. Results from five articles journal obtained One article in the category effect size medium , one article in the category medium, and three effect sizes article journals with effect size is very large. The average value of effect size of five articles journal the namely of 1.11. Based on the table's interpretation effect size, the average of five article journals shows that the RME model has a very big influence in increase ability breakdown problem mathematical participant educate . In addition t-test results were obtained so is rejected. This means that there is a significant influence between the average mathematical problem solving ability of students who use RME learning and the average problem solving ability of students who don’t use RME learning. The implication obtained is that the RME model can made into references by educators in activity learning mathematics in an effort to increase the ability breakdown problems mathematical participants educate.
