National educational reform can be done at two levels of macro and micro. At the macro level, the national education reform must be able to renew the vision and develop the educational paradigm and scrape out the constraints of education by maintaining, improving quality, professionalism and community towards the new Indonesia is Indonesia that is open, democratic and united. For an educational practitioners (teachers), educational reform on a macro level as to how things are beyond the reach of his thinking and his ability. However, considering the education of teachers is a critical success, then teachers can play a role object and subject of educational reform by improving the ability to educate and manage the classroom. But the fact is not easy because it educates students find that learning is not easy. There are still a considerable gap between educational ideals and practices in the field. For a student of mathematics is the lowest math scores is that if only his own use, a higher value if the math can be used for public interest. But the highest math scores is if it can be used systemically for the wider interest. The sharpness of the future of mathematics can wander through a teleological concept that what happens in the future at least be photographed through the present. Nevertheless there are still other values ​​that are related to levels of quality. At first the quality of math scores is only visible on the outside, but on the quality of the second and third and so on then the value of mathematics is metaphysical. With analog thinking then what happens to the disclosure of the value of mathematics can be used also in the disclosure of the noble values ​​of the nation. The noble values ​​can be achieved again none other than merely by the method of translating and translated from the context of the passage of time past, present, and future. This is then known people with hermenitika method. In the field of education, teachers need to continually evaluate deficiency or excess of teaching in order to obtain information for improving teaching. For that teachers need to receive encouragement and assistance of relevant parties, especially the principal and school inspector, so that they can realize the good teaching. A teacher can reflect the style of teaching is good and if the teacher flexible ways of organizing master classes, making use of teaching resources, the achievement of teaching according to student ability, the development of evaluation systems, the handling of individual differences, and the realization of a particular teaching style according to the needs . Required a 'political will' of the government to put education back to the essence of 'educate' in accordance with the essence of 'the subject of students' and the nature of 'scientific', so that education is not only seen as something that is 'required' but something that is 'required' by the learner , so that education does not regard the subject of students as 'investment' as the subject development but that needs to be 'developed'.
