Therefore, in selecting appropriate learning models must consider the condition of the student, the material properties of materials, available-media facilities, and conditions of teachers themselves. So in learning activities digunakanpun method is not enough with just one method alone, but must be more innovative and interesting.

To understand what they learn, students must act with their own work through the math curriculum, testing, state, transform, resolve, implement, demonstrate and communicate.
