It is regarded as being problem that students are unable to use mathematical knowledge to the real world. My approach to this problem focuses on students' attitude toward using mathematical knowledge to the real world. Students tend to see the activity of word problem solving as a game that have nothing to do with the real world. It is necessary to bring the activities in the mathematics classroom close to the problem solving activities in the real world. One of the points that most of the problem solving activities in the mathematics classroom are different from the problem solving activity in the real world is the fact that a decision making isn't contained there. I believe that students will notice that the learning activities in the mathematics classroom closely parallel the problem solving activities in the real world, when a decision making is part of the activities in the mathematics classroom.
