The population of the research was high school students in Central Java Province. The research instrument used in the study was CPS test. The data were analyzed based on the students’ gender. The research resulted in the following conclusions: (1) the improvement of students’ mathematical CPS ability taught under SBL was higher than those who were taught using conventional method based on students’ gender, and (2) there was no interaction between learning model and gender on the improvement of students’ mathematical CPS ability.
