Mathematics is a science that requires a lot of logic because a lot of abstract things. Every problem in our life can be related to the mathematical sciences. Thus, the application of mathematics in the our life is very important. A teacher who teaches mathematics at the school should related to subject matter with daily life so that students are easy to understand. One way is with a realistic mathematical learning. Realistic Mathematics Education emphasizes the construction of the context of concrete objects as a starting point for students to acquire mathematical concepts. Concrete objects and environment objects can be used as a context for learning mathematics in building mathematical connections through social interaction.
In the side of teachers, how teachers' efforts to obtain ideide about concrete objects and objects surrounding environment that can used as a context for learning mathematics in making onnections mathematics through social interaction? Assessment and analysis of learning mathematics that have been recorded into the video tape recorder (VTR) is one one way or businesses that can be done by the teacher.
One method of learning in realistic mathematics education is to use a video tape recorder (VTP). A mathematical model of learning that has been recorded in the VTR certainly has its advantages and disadvantages. So the teachers can discussion to acquire new knowledge in a way compare with the experience. As for the VTR itself also have drawbacks, such as: the limited point of view, not all aspects can be recorded, image quality, the moment of decision image that is not appropriate.
Using of VTR realistic approach to learning mathematics can be gives the following benefits:
1. Teachers have the opportunity to test the concrete objects and obyekobyek

2. Teachers have the opportunity to explore and reflect on the concepts realistic mathematics learning.
3. Teachers have the opportunity to exchange experiences with other teachers about the development of realistic mathematical learning.
4. Teachers have the opportunity to reflect on the preparation of the learning process
teaching in junior high school mathematics in accordance with the principles or PMRI
5. Teachers have the opportunity to reflect on the development of sources

Curriculum development in this syllabus should be based on several things, among them: the content (content), the concepts, skills / skills, problems and interests of students.
Syllabus is an elaboration of standards of competence and basic competence in the subject matter, learning activities, and indicators of achievement of competencies for assessment. Subjects syllabus prepared based on the allocation of time provided to subjects during the education in schools. Preparation of syllabus implemented jointly by the classroom teacher / teachers who teach the same subject at one school or school group by taking into account the characteristics of each school.

sebagai permulaan..

Kisah Salman Al Faritsi
Salman berasal dari desa Ji di Isfahan, Persia. Ia adalah anak kesayangan ayahnya, seorang bupati di daerah itu. Salman mulanya adalah penganut Majusi yang taat hingga ia diserahi tugas sebagai penjaga api.
Suatu saat ia melewati sebuah gereja Nashrani yang sedang mengadakan sembahyang. Setelah masuk dan memperhatikan apa yang mereka kerjakan, Salman menjadi kagum. Ia pun bertanya tentang asal agama mereka yang ternyata berasal dari Syria. Salman mennceritakan hal ini kepada bapaknya dan mengatakan bahwa upacara kaum Nashrani sungguh mengagumkan, lebih baik dari agama Majusi yang mereka anut. Lalu terjadilah diskusi antara Salman dan bapaknya yang berujung pada dijebloskannya Salman dalam penjara dengan kaki terikat rantai.

Kepada orang-orang Nashrani, Salman memstorieshukan bahwa ia telah menganut agama mereka dan berpesan agar ia distorieshu jika ada rombongan dari Syiria yang datang. Setelah permintaannya dipenuhi ia pun meloloskan diri dari penjara dan bergambung dengan rombongan tersebut ke Syiria. Di Syiria ia tinggal sebagai pelayan bersama dengan seorang Uskup untuk belajar agama yang baru ia anut. Salman sangat mencintainya dan ketika menjelang wafat ia menanyakan kepada sang Uskup siapa yang harus ia hubungi sepeninggalnya. Lalu orang tersebut menceritakan tentang masa itu yang ternyata sudah dekat dengan kebangkitan seorang Nabi pengikut agama Ibrahim yang hanif, beserta tanda-tanda kenabian yang ada padanya termasuk tempat hijrahnya.

Suatu hari lewatlah rombongan berkendaraan dari jazirah Arab. Salman minta agar mereka mau memintanya membawa pergi ke negeri mereka dengan imbalan sapi-sapi dan kambing-kambing hasil jerih payahnya sebagai peternak. Permintaan tersebut dikabulkan. Namun ketika sampai di negeri yang bernama Wadil Qura, rombongan tersebut menganiaya Salman dan menjualnya kepada seorang Yahudi sebagai budak. Setelah beberapa lama, Salman dibeli oleh seorang Yahudi lain dari Bani Quraidhah dan dibawa ke Madinah. Sesampainya di Madinah Salman pun akhirnya yakin bahwa negeri ini adalah sebagaimana yang disebutkan kepadanya dulu.

Setelah mendengar kedatangan Rasulullah SAW yang hijrah ke Madinah, Salman pun datang menjumpai beliau beberapa kali, dan ia mendapatkan semua tanda-tanda kenabian yang pernah diceritakan kepadanya. Hal ini membuat Salman yakin akan kebenaran Rasulullah SAW dan menyatakan keislamannya. Namun statusnya sebagai budak telah menghalangi Salman untuk turut serta dalam perang Badar dan Uhud. Dengan bantuan finansial para sahabat, Salman pun akhirnya berhasil ditebus dan dimerdekakan.

Ketika terjadi perang Khandaq, kaum Muslimin di Madinah diserang oleh kekuatan gabungan anti Islam dari luar dan dari dalam. Pasukan Quraisy dan Ghathfan menyerbu Madinah dari luar sedangkan Yahudi Bani Quraidhah menyerang dari dalam. Melihat kondisi ini Salman menyarankan strategi perang Persia yang asing bagi bangsa Arab, yakni penggalian parit sepanjang daerah terbuka mengelilingi kota. Melihat ini, pasukan kaum kafir yang hendak menyerbu Madinah merasa terpukul dan dipaksa berkemah di luar kota Madinah hingga pada suatu malam Allah mengirimkan angin topan yang memporak-porandakan mereka.

Salman adalah sahanat utama yang taqwa, cerdas, dan bersahaja. Kendatipun dari golongan kelas atas dan seorang putera Persia, negeri yang terkenal dengan kemewahan, namun ia amat zuhud kepada dunia. Ketika menanti ajal, Sa'ad bin Abi Waqqash datang menjenguknya dan ia dapati Salman menangis, teringat pesan Rasulullah : "Hendaklah bagian masing-masingmu dari kekayaan dunia ini seperti bekal seorang pengendara", sedangkan ia merasa hartanya masih banyak. Sa'ad mengatakan : "Saya perhatikan, tak ada yang tampak di sekelilingku kecuali satu piring dan sebuah baskom."

Sekelumit kisah sang pencari kebenaran Salman Al Faritsi ini mengandung banyak pelajaran. Kecintaan dari ayah, kedudukan terhormat sebagai anak pembesar dan penunggu api, serta kehidupan yang berkecukupan tidaklah menjadi tujuan tertinggi hidupnya. Kendatipun belum menjadi seorang muslim, Salman seakan memiliki pribadi yang hanif dengan fitrah yang bersih.

Salman mampu bersifat objektif dan mau mengakui kekurangan agama Majusi yang dianutnya dibandingkan agama Nashrani yang kemudian dipeluknya. Ia pun tak segan-segan masuk Islam ketika Rasul ditunggu-tunggunya tiba. Bukanlah menjadi soal bagi Salman sang pemuda Persi untuk memeluk agama Nashrani yang berasal dari Syiria. Sungguh bahagia hati Salman, budak dari Persi untuk memeluk Islam yang dibawa oleh Muhammad, orang Arab. Kebenaran adalah dari Allah, tak peduli siapa yang menyampaikan dan darimana asalnya. Maka seseorang yang berjiwa hanif sudah sewajarnya mengikuti kebenaran yang datangnya dari Allah. Wallahu'alam.***
