Therefore, the subjects Mathematics syllabus should be formulated so that the load lines of material that refers to the characteristics Mathematics in accordance with the competencies to be achieved. Mathematics learning in order to meet the demands of educational innovation in general, Ebbutt and Straker (1995: 10-63) defines the Mathematical School, hereinafter referred to as the Mathematics, Mathematics as an activity is the search patterns and relationships, Mathematics as a creativity that requires imagination, intuition and invention, Mathematics as problem solving activities (problem solving), and Mathematics as a tool to communicate.
Competency-based curriculum designed to be in the process of learning mathematics, students are able to perform the search patterns and relationships, develop creativity and imagination, intuition and discovery, problem solving activities and communicate mathematical thinking to others. To achieve these capabilities, developed a process that takes into account the context of learning mathematics and its application.
