Realistic Mathematics emphasize on construction from concrete things as initial point for student for getting mathematics concepts. Analysis about teaching learning methods using VTR (Video Tape Recorder) is one way or effort that can be done by the teacher. With using VTR, teacher hoped can learn how make a plan to teach mathematics in Junior High School, how to develop the learning source, how to develop assessment activity, and how to implement teaching learning process that suit with Realistic Mathematic Education(RME) in Junior High School.
RME has specification in approaching. In RME, student develop own model and that model is used become the base to develop their formal mathematics. There are two models that can be happen in that process: model of situation and model for formal mathematics.   
An observation and analysis using VTR, where teacher record teaching learning mathematics with realistic approach, the other teacher can test and find the other alternative for develop the idea about concrete object that can use in teaching mathematics context and built relation mathematics with social interaction.
Mathematics teaching model that have been recorded in VTR has any profit and weakness. Any profits that can get by the teacher such as: the teachers having a chance to discuss with other teacher to get new knowledge with compare with own experiences, the teacher has chance to reflect mathematic concepts, the teacher has many reflection about planning teaching learning process, source of learning and also an assessment that have been get from the other teacher, etc. But VTR also has weakness such as: limited point of view, can’t record all aspect, result (picture) quality, and moment that can’ always appropriate.
