Abstract. Push-pull theoretical framework is a popular theory to explain the reason why the tourists decide to visit the destination rather than other place, the kind of experience they want to get and the type of activity they want to do. In this paper, it is explained the motivation as push factors and the perception as pull factors of the tourist in deciding the destination based on previous literature and research using descriptive method. The framework asumed that tourists are motivated to fulfill their needs, including to reduce the psychological imbalance and to gain recognition of social status. National Park is one of destination based on nature or commonly knowns as ecotourism. In choosing the destination, the tourists tend to classify their alternative choice based on several criteria, such as the domination perception of tourist from one destination (pull factor), self motivation (push factor) and the available time and money (situational constraints).
One way to measure the development of a country in the main international scale assessment is the PISA (Programme International for Student Assesment). The thinking process of students in solving PISA standard problems can be analyzed using the theory of Assimilation and Accommodation. The approach used in this study is qualitative with the type of case study. The data analyzed in the form of the results of the subject's work when solving problems with PISA standards and the results of interviews with the research subjects. The subject of this study was a prospective student of mathematics at IAIN Tulungagung. The results of the study indicate that the thinking process of students when solving PISA standard problems includes: (a) assimilation: that is, students can directly apply their knowledge to the problems to obtain solutions to problems; and (b) accommodation: i.e. students modify their knowledge to be adapted to existing problems and form new knowledge to suit existing problems.
