Abstract

Facts and research results show that the 2013 curriculum implementation has not been effective. The contributing factors are teachers and students. The teacher is not able to manage student-centered learning because it is used to teacher-centered learning. Students are not able to follow the learning because they are familiar with teacher-dominated learning. Consequently, learning becomes ineffective. The alternative solution to the problem is learning realistic mathematics education using context that is close to students. The context applied is the context of the student's culture, namely the Toba Batak culture. The results of the study show that students meet the minimum completeness criteria that have been set by the government, the teacher is able to manage learning well, students gived positive responses to the learning carried out. In accordance with the indicators of learning effectiveness, it can be concluded that the learning of realistic mathematics education using the context of the Toba Batak culture is effective.
