Abstract

This paper aims to provide a description of realistic mathematics education in improving emotional intelligence. Mathematics is a tool that can be developed to foster thinking (reasoning) and attitudes (emotions) (Nelissen, 2007). Emotional intelligence is the ability to feel, understand and effectively apply the power and emotional sensitivity as an energy source and as a motivator. The models that emerged from students' mathematical activity can promote interaction in class, thus leading to the level of mathematical thinking and higher learning meaningful democracy. Thus, learning mathematics is a realistic learning actively involves students both physically and mentally (student centered learning), and be democratic, so as to have a better profile in the critical thinking skills and emotional intelligence of students. Keywords: emotional intelligence, learning, mathematics, constructive, interactive, reflective, realistic
