  • This study aims to see students 'mathematical communication skills and student learning motivation through a realistic mathematics education learning approach, describing the process of students' answers in solving mathematical communication problems. This study is a quasi-experimental research . The research subjects were students of class VIII SMP Negeri 1 Binjai. Then two classes were randomly selected. The experimental class was given PMR learning treatment and the control class with ordinary learning. The instruments used consisted of: a test of mathematical communication skills and a student motivation questionnaire.The purpose of this study was to determine whether: improvement in mathematical communication skills of students who obtained learning with the Realistic Mathematical Approach (PMR) was higher than students who received Conventional learning, increased learning motivation of students who obtained learning with PMR higher than students who obtain Conventional learning, there is an interaction between learning models with students' initial mathematical abilities to increase students' mathematical communication skills, there is an interaction between learning models with students' initial mathematical abilities towards increasing student motivation. The results of this study have explained in detail the research procedures for improving communication skills and student motivation through a realistic mathematics education approach.
