This study aims to analyze scientific trends related to the application of RME and its impact on self-confidence in mathematics education curriculum. A bibliometric approach was used to analyze 200 articles published between 2020-2024. Data were obtained using the Publish or Perish tool and analyzed with VOSviewer to evaluate citation metrics, collaboration patterns between authors, and relationships between keywords.

Abstract

Realistic Mathematics Education (RME) has been recognized as an innovative approach that effectively improves mathematical skills and students' self-confidence. This study aims to analyze scientific trends related to the application of RME and its impact on self-confidence in mathematics education curriculum. A bibliometric approach was used to analyze 200 articles published between 2020-2024. Data were obtained using the Publish or Perish tool and analyzed with VOSviewer to evaluate citation metrics, collaboration patterns between authors, and relationships between keywords. The analysis results showed 2,314 citations with an average of 11.57 citations per article and active collaboration patterns with an average of 2.6 authors per article. This study found that the Realistic Mathematics Education (RME) approach significantly increased students' confidence in learning mathematics and improved problem-solving skills and in-depth concept understanding. The bibliometric analysis showed that research topics related to RME and student confidence have received extensive academic attention, with high citation rates and significant contributions to the development of mathematics education theory and practice. The findings confirm the importance of RME as an innovative approach in supporting students' cognitive and affective learning outcomes while providing a basis for developing mathematics education practice.
