Civilize of mathematics in school is the range between awareness of the existence of multiple dimensions of mathematics, learn and develop attitudes that supported by knowledge of the methods and mathematics content, so obtained the skills to perform mathematical activities, till variety of experiences and activities studied mathematics obtained and present it in various forms in accordance with its dimensions. Civilize mathematics at school have an understanding aspects of the nature of mathematics, the nature of mathematics school, the nature of mathematics education, the nature of the mathematics value, the nature of studying mathematics, the nature of mathematics teaching and learning process, the nature of school mathematics civilize.
The emphasize of civilize of mathematics in school are the dimensions of human relationships and esteem both individual differences in ability and experience. Mathematics seen more humane, it can be considered as language, human creativity. Students has the right of individuals to protect and develop themselves and their experiences according to its potential. Learning theory based on the assumption that every student is different each others in the mastery of mathematics. There are some oppinion that Students has different mental preparedness and different abilities in learning mathematics. Therefore each individual need the opportunity, treatment, and the different facilities in the studying mathematics.
Civilizing mathematical learning has implications to teacher function as a good facilitator so that students can learn mathematics optimally. Students are the center of learning mathematics. Students work on different mathematics activities with different target. Teachers have three main functions: as a facilitator, as a source teaching and monitoring students' activities. Thus, teachers can develop variance learning methods: lectures, discussions, giving assignments, seminars, etc.
To be able to civilizing mathematics cultivate is needed an understanding of the meaning of mathematics in various dimensions. Dimensional mathematical meaning can be seen from the side dimensional mathematical of concrete objects and mathematical dimensions of mind objects. Mathematical communication includes materials communication, formal communication, normative communication and spiritual communication. Related with learning mathematics then more suited to define mathematics as school mathematics, but for college-level mathematics we define as formal mathematical or axiomatic. Mathematics civilizing contribute to the nation excellence through conducted an continuous mathematical learning innovation. In relation to obtaining the nation benefits then we can think of mathematics, learning mathematics and mathematics education at different hierarchy level or the level of intrinsic, extrinsic or systemic.
