Essence of school mathematics and Nature of student of mathematics by Rizal Ahmad PMNR08 08301244039

In lecturing, Dr. Marsigit have explained about mathematics of school and nature of student of mathematics. I also read some reference which deal with above context, so that I which can catch from lecturing or from the coresponding reference shall be as follows.

Essence of school mathematics

Mathematics is pattern
Meaning mathematics can put in the way of the student to conduct the activity of invention and investigation of mathematics pattern and earn also push the student to find the existence of sequence, difference, comparison, and subdividing.

Mathematics is communications
Meaning mathematics own the function can push the student reason the importance of explaining the nature of mathematics, reading and writing mathematics and others which deal with student communications.

Mathematics is investigation
Mathematics can form the student become the student owning to feel the high desire in enquiring to estimate. Others can push the student find the structure and design mathematics.

Mathematics is problem solving
Mathematics can push the student think out the mathematics by using its own way. And most importantly is can push the student to think logical and own the ability and skill think problem solving.

Nature of student of math

Student needs motivation
To more to improving of herself belief of so that more of the spirit and so that in mathematics study felt to please. Others motivate also can make the student to more readily to face the mathematics problem of in front of. Strong motivation is not got from outside, but emerging from within herself of each individual or in this case student.

Student is unique
In this world, there no from each that individual is equal, though them is twin one egg even if. For example twin baby one egg born to a world of one in holding by right hand, and which is one is again holded by left hand.
Mathematics student not all have the pattern or way of finishing problem or way of learning same, but in each that individual differ and own unique each.

Student have a competence
Student have a competence in herself of each, but that interest have to be dug and sharpened by so that stand-out instruct the membership area from every student.

Student is contextually
Student have a ability or nature of contextually, meaning to learn from external circumstance or about. In study, student learn the circumstance from outside existing context matching with study learned.
