![]() ![]() We describe our experience of developing and implementing an inquiry-based biology laboratory curriculum and offer suggestions to help others successfully implement their own inquiry-based courses. In particular, instructors new to inquiry-based instruction can anticipate changes to teacher and student roles, a shift that may be sup-ported with instructor training and awareness of common student reac-tions. Instructors adopting inquiry-based curricula often are unaware of the typical instructional challenges they may face. ![]() What this means for day-to-day practices in the classroom is more elusive. Lessons Learned Inquiry-based instruction is widely promoted to increase both students' conceptual understanding and their engagement in course content. Keywords: Developing Students’ Text Book and Teachers’ Guide, realistic mathematic, mathematical knowledge, attitude, mathematical aptitude. Findings from the mathematical aptitude sheets have concluded that the students were able to reach 4.03 score or in other words were highly creative. ![]() Findings from the observation sheets have also shown that students were able to reach 4.1 score or in other words the students were highly active and involve during the study process. The Research findings have indicated that the book with aforementioned criteria was able to help the students reaching better score with average of 80.02 and 76 percent of students in the class were able to reach higher score above the pre-determined standard (KKM). The current findings have several conclusions regarding the ideal criteria of better students’ text book and teachers’ guide book with realistic mathematic as the fundamental: 1) It should be able to help students constructing the knowledge instead of merely receiving the knowledge 2) in order to be able to improve student’s attitude, the book should be designed to provoke curiosity and students class participations 3) in order to be able to increase mathematical aptitude, it should be able to increase students’ mathematical skill as well as observation skill, and using the formulation that has previously given. The research object was VII class students if SMP Alkarim Bengkulu academic year of 2014/2015 that comprised of 17 students, consisted of 8 male and 9 female. In order to develop the design, there were four steps of the research: defining, designing, developing, and disseminating. The Research was an experimental research seeking to produce students’ text book and teachers’ guide book in order to help reader better comprehends the concept of two-dimensional figure, rectangle, and triangle. The objectives are to increase knowledge, attitude, and mathematical aptitude of students’ of SMP Al Karim Bengkulu. The research aims to produce a student’s text book and a teachers’ guide book with realistic mathematic as the fundamentals. ![]()
