The aim of this study is to create understanding profiles of elementary school teachers who have been and have not been following the workshop PMRI, before and after they learned the learning resource about philosophy, principles, and characteristics of realistic mathematics approach. This type of research used in this study is a combination of qualitative research and developmental research. The results shown in this paper is the understanding profile of one subject who is an elementary school teacher. Research subjects involved in the trial for the first task, the learning resource, and second task are six persons, which consists of three PGSD students who are working on the final project, and three elementary school teachers.
One of goals of this research was to describe the mathematics education department students’ ability in mathematics literacy for change and relationship problem on Programme for International Students Assessment (PISA) test. The procedures of this research were (1) adapt the PISA test, (2) validate the PISA adaptation test, (3) ask seven students from mathematics education department to solve PISA adaptation test, and (4) describe bachelor students’ solution profile. There were (1) three change and relationship problems, (2) four space and shape problems, (3) two uncertainty problems, and (4) four quantity problems. The type of this research is a design research. Subjects of this research were seven bachelor students of mathematics education department. The research results were as follows: (1) level four achieved by one student (14.29%) in problem number 2b.4; (2) level three achieved by (a) six students at problem number 2a, (b) five students at problem number 2b.2; and (c)three students at number 2b.3 and 3; and (3) level two achieved by three students at number 3.
