Abstract

PMRI (Pendidikan Matematika Realistik Indonesia) has been implemented in some Primary Schools in Indonesia since 2001. Sanata Dharma University (USD) in Yogyakarta is one of the four universities which founded the PMRI Movement. Sanata Dharma University tries to keep its commitment to apply and develop PMRI as one alternative to improve the quality of mathematics education in Indonesia. In the process of development, P4MRI in USD also pays attention to the results of research in various disciplines, e.g. cognitive psychology, cognitive science and neuro science. One of the weakness of mathematics teaching and learning in Indonesia is the teacher centre approach. It is used in practice by most of teachers in the classroom. Their paradigm is related to teaching paradigm. In PMRI we use the learning paradigm in practicing the idea of Freudenthal that mathematics is human activities and pupils learn mathematics based on their experiences. We ask teachers to help students improving their understanding of mathematics by familiarizing them to pose questions to themselves: what, how and why. In solving a problem, the teacher lets them freely to find out their strategy and discuss it in their small group. The teacher helps them by giving some comments on their planning of solution or some suggestions, e.g. “ do some exploration, make a table or a figure, or specialize!” Key words: PMRI, Metacognition, Metacognitive Scaffolding
