Algebra differential function is a subject that learned at senior high school grade XI. It is generally aware that mathematics is less like by most students. The students' less like to mathematics, probably caused by the difficulty of understanding it. This dislike will affect the student's achievement in math learning.<p>Teacher's skill is needed to carry out the math study. One of the skills is to increase student's understanding and application on math rigorously, to connect the understanding that already learned and the one will be, and to help student to find the connection among concepts.<p>The teacher could design learning process by enabling student to search the answer, or method more than one for the problem. In math this kind of approach called open-ended approach.<p>Open ended approach, discuss and solve the problem as in the problem-solving approach. The assumption is that the process is more important than the result. Those two are pressing on the effort of solving problem and formulating the problem first. In open-ended approaches, there are many solutions and methods. The open-ended approach gives the student a wide opportunity to express their answers. In this context, the open ended approach tends to attract the creativity of the student thought.<p>Hopefully, the open-ended become a solution to make mathematics subject being like more.
