Abstract

Mathematics is a discipline that closely relates to everyday life, making it essential to align its learning with the reality of students. An approach used to bridge the gap between classroom learning and reallife experiences is Realistic Mathematics Learning (RML). By placing the experiences and reality of students at the forefront, RML allows students to learn this subject through activities that develop mathematical tools to solve problems associated with everyday life. The mathematization process, which starts from the real world and progresses to the symbol world, comprises two stages, namely horizontal and vertical. In the horizontal stage, students use their informal experiences to link the concepts of this subject to real-world situations, transforming everyday language into mathematical language. In contrast, the vertical stage involves expanding the symbol world through constructing principles and algorithms that allow for generalization and abstraction. Through this mathematization process, informal experiences are gradually formalized into a system that helps to shape the cognitive abilities, soft skills, and mastery of technology of students. This process prepares them to welcome the Society 5.0 era, where mathematical literacy and problem-solving skills are essential for success
