"Research is an activity to find knowledge called science. In this case, the science is not only needed by the students, but also needed by a teacher who facilitates students to get knowledge. Therefore, teachers also need research to find science, to find the best way to facilitate the students. A teacher or a candidate teacher of mathematics required to be innovative and always a discussion about the methods of teaching and learning mathematics that accordance with current trends. And I think learning mathematics will be better if the teacher gives examples that found in daily life. It will be more easily understood by students, especially students of elementary school.

Learning methods can also be done with the scientific research with the observation of the students. And research can be achieved if developed a scientific method that satisfies the coherence and correspondence natures. Then, the knowledge to be gained from these efforts can increase the professionalism of teachers in the field of mathematics education."

"After read the article above, I think that it is true about the role of intuition in mathematics education.  The role of intuition is very important thing to teaching and learning process of mathematics. And there are two roles of intuition, ontological role and epistemological role. Ontological role of intuition in mathematics related to the position of objects, concepts, and mathematical structures. While the epistemological role of intuition includes other sources of knowledge of mathematics, methods, and decision-making of mathematics.
Although there are some different opinion about the role of intuition, we still reminded that intuition has an important role in the mathematics. So, none philosophy of mathematics can ignore intuition. And this article can conclude that the role of intuition in mathematics more philosophical than mathematical."

"After read the article above, I was reminded of the times when I was in elementary school. At that time, when I was in second grade elementary school, I was forced to memorize multiplication number 2. Although it can help me in mathematics in high school, I do not really feel the benefits of mathematics in daily life. Mathematics is only used when there is a problem calculating the numbers, I thought at the time. Mathematics is also a subject that is difficult for students who do not like mathematics. Mathematics just makes head become dizzy, especially when students are not able to work on the problems on the mathematics exam. However, these events do not apply to students who like mathematics. They can say that mathematics is easy, mathematics is beautiful. The difference that occurs is a challenge that must be faced by teachers. Teachers should be able to put themselves in facilitate the students. Teachers must not discriminate against students because each student has a different personal and unique. And the task of the teacher is to find the best way to facilitate the differences of their students."

"After read the article above, I can conclude that there are some reasons why there is resistance to change curriculum from 2006 curriculum to 2013 curriculum. And one of the most fundamental reason is the change in the curriculum does not have a strong background and seem in a hurry. This makes the vision and mission of the school is unclear. In addition, the curriculum changes do not involve teachers and pedagogical experts in the process of developing a curriculum that can lead teachers and student become victims. Not only teachers, but also the candidate of teachers who become confused because of the subjects they will teach is eliminated in this curriculum. Should the curriculum makers can refine curriculum existing research and evaluation of the implementation of the 2006 curriculum, so can guarantee a better education in Indonesia.
Therefore, there is some advice for this, such as
1. Orientation education should refer to the constitution, intellectual life of the nation.
2. Improving the quality of teachers, such as training.
3. Changes in the curriculum should be based on a clear research and all related stakeholder."
