Abstract

High-level mathematical thinking skills are the main goal in learning mathematics. So far, the practice of learning in schools has not facilitated students to develop these abilities. PMRI (the Indonesian version of realistic mathematics education) is a learning approach that is oriented towards the students` ability to understand the realistic situations that can be imagined and integrated with the ability to understand concepts, use progressive mathematical models, interactivity and take advantage of student contributions are expected to improve students' abilities in learning mathematics. This study aims to determine the implementation of PMRI approach in improving high-order thinking skills of mathematics in class XI SMA Mutiara Bangsa 2 Tangerang on limit function through e-learning. This research was developed based on a research design that includes three, those are preliminary design, experiment, and retrospective analysis. This study was designed with five meetings using six research subjects. The subjects of this study consisted of six students who were selected based on their evaluation test and their activeness during learning process. The research instruments analyzed were formative and summative test results based on higher-order thinking skills, findings note, student questionnaires, and the hypothetical learning trajectory (HLT). The results obtained from the retrospective analysis show that the implementation of PMRI in learning and instruction of limit function is able to develop higher-order thinking skills of class XI students of SMA Mutiara Bangsa 2 Tangerang.
