Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the Realistic MathematicsEducation (RME) approach in enhancing students' ability to represent mathematics,which remains low in conventional learning. Employing PRISMA 2020-based Systematic Literature Review (SLR), literature search was conducted onGoogle Scholar (2013-2025) using keywords RME and mathematicalrepresentation, yielding 14 high-quality empirical articles (quasi-experiments,classroom action research) from 420 initial records. Thematic-content analysisand meta-descriptive synthesis demonstrate RME consistently improves verbal,visual, and symbolic representation abilities (effect size 0,65-1,2 SD), outperformingconventional/STAD approaches across elementary-secondary levels. Superiority isevident through real-world contexts and concrete media utilization. These findingsconfirm RME as an effective pedagogical solution for mathematical literacy teachertraining, and RME-based module development is recommended.
