Students assume the math lessons that scary and difficult, they also assume that mathematics has nothing to do with everyday life. One of the teachers' efforts in improving the motivation to learn mathematics in junior high school that by making the process of learning becomes fun and exciting. The success of the process of learning mathematics is not far from the role of teachers as informator, facilitator and communicator. Learning method can be done by way of interaction between students and teachers. For that the need for a method of learning so that learning will be fun. For example, can use like mathematical models show that given a board of nails, rubber bands, playing cards, student records, transparent paper, thread, some pieces of wood, so of course this can increase student motivation in the learning process. The use of methods that vary in their learning purpose to motivate students and to keep students from feeling bored and always use the help of an optimal and attractive demonstration to explain the concepts, ideas and definitions, or a procedure.

CAREER WOMEN

In modern world, women have the benefit from wider chance of getting a career outside their household sphere. Many women, however, have some difficulties deciding whether they will pursue a career or not. Some of them stay at their offices, while at the same time they act as a housewives. But, the others choose to concentrate their attention to their household only.

Being career women offers the advantage of a wider chance of self-actualization. They can widen their knowledge and develop their capacity. For example, many women do not know exactly what is their talent before they start a career. But then, after they have a career they know which field they can do the best and which one they cannot. This will help them to refocus their life goal.

Another big advantage is that they can help supporting their household’s finance so that men do not become the single fighter in financing their families. For example, if a wife works, she can help her husband financing their children’s educational budget, so that their children can have the best education.

Being career women, significant disadvantages, too. They have more burdens in their life, as they have to manage their job as well as their household. For example, a female teacher has to prepare teaching material for tomorrow class while at the same time she has to think about how to handle her naughty son.

In addition,being career women can be risky for their household. For example, many women have to spend their time more in their career as it grows more challenging, so they have only limited time left for their family, resulting in their lack of care and attention for their husband and children. The extreme impact of this situation is the broken home.

In the end, the decision that each women makes will depend an their own personal values, as well as their readiness for taking on the considerable consequences of each choice.
