Abstract
Problem posing as one of mathematical competencies is required by young generations to face complex problems in the era of Industrial Revolution 4.0. Prospective mathematics teachers, who will become a teacher have to teach their students (as the member of young generations) problem posing skills. However, not all prospective mathematics teachers are good at problem posing. The purpose of this study is to find out how problem posing can enhance professionalism and how to develop mathematical problem posing ability of prospective mathematics teachers. The method used is descriptive qualitative. There are literature reviews on 20 journals from the past 10 years that support and related to this study. The results show that developing mathematical problem posing ability can support and enhance prospective mathematics teachers professionalism in order to face the education in the era of Industrial Revolution 4.0.
