Research is an activity to gain knowledge called science, done with certain procedures that are systematic and supported by a methodology is an assessment of the rules in his method. As a teacher or prospective teacher of mathematics are required to always perform innovative
discussion of how we gain knowledge about learning mathematics in accordance with current trends. Our knowledge about aspects of learning mathematics as a knowledge that is desired is an understanding of scientific about the workings of the mind of individual students in learning mathematics, how gain an understanding of aspects of learning and how arkitektural
a teacher to understand the analogies between the student's knowledge, knowledge teacher and practitioner knowledge about learning mathematics. Enterprises can achieved if developed a scientific method that meets the coherence properties and properties correspondence. A description of the phenomena occurring in the process of learning mathematics as a description of truth, requires empirical measures is rational to obtain theories about truth and ideals practice learning mathematics. Thus in the end good knowledge ontologically formal and legally able to increase the professionalism of teachers in the field mathematics education.

If we want teachers of mathematics education reform is the research mathematics education will become a necessity. Apart from the formal legal aspects of mathematics education research activities either by teachers, lecturers as well as by prospective teachers will give many benefits. With the study of mathematics education we can know the existence of differences in individuals or groups to study the mathematics, we can determine the position of students in the group, can compare learning outcomes between groups. We can also do a match between objectives and results of learning outcomes: whether the standard of competence or basic competence has been achieved? Research results can be used for refining the program, mentoring, provision of information to the public. Besides that we also can do a comparison between the performances and the criteria for each dimension of the program as well as refining the program and the inference results of mathematics education as a whole. Then we can conduct studies on the implementation of the program, the influence of the learning environment, the influence of the program, curriculum or syllabus of learning outcomes, and ultimately used for the improvement of mathematics education program as a whole. Of excessive exposure in advance not to the teachers would be given a suggestion to enter the educational research activities is always attached with mathematics learning activities. More specifically, before learning of mathematics held the teachers should do the following as a preparatory step:

Planning for mathematics learning environment
- Determine the necessary teaching resources
- Plan activities that are flexible
- Plan the physical environment of learning mathematics.
- Involve students in creating mathematical learning environment.
Develop students' social environment
- Plan activities to work together.
- Encourage students to appreciate each other.
- Browse the feelings of students about mathematics
- To develop mathematical models.
Plan mathematical activities
- Plan mathematical activities are balanced in terms of: material,
time, trouble, activities, etc..
- Plan mathematical activities that are open (open-ended)
- Plan activities according to students' abilities.
- Development of mathematical topics.
- Build mental math.
- When and where help students?
- Use a variety of teaching brag (books vary).
