In the Virtual Learning Environment, students interact with the teacher and the other students. By interacting, students can enhance the understanding of mathematical concepts and its application in the real life. This study aims to develop a model of virtual learning environment based on Realistic Mathematics Education. The research questions are how to develop and implement this model and its effect on the learning outcomes. The results of development in this study are the model and device of VirtualMATRiKS. Students simulate the conceptual mathematization process by create the movie about problem solving. Then students share and discuss it through virtual-learning device. After validated by experts, the model and device were implemented in Semarang Senior High School. And the result is the model and devices qualify the effectiveness and practicality. This model gives a positive impact on student learning outcomes, and students can reach the Upper Limit of Zone of Proximal Development. This model can be applied and developed further in learning mathematics by considering into environment, conditions and students interest
