Futhermore, the data of this research was collected through students' achievement sheet. Then the hypothesis was tested by using two ways anava. From the result of this research, it can be concluded that (1) there was no different on Math understanding between students' taught by using CTL approach and those who were taught by using conventional technique, (2) there was no different on Math understanding between male and female students, and (3) there was no significant interaction between teaching approach and gender in influencing Math understanding.
