Abstract

This study aims to analyze students' cognitive patterns and understanding of mathematical concepts in problem-based learning that integrates ethnomathematics, in comparison with materials that do not. This study uses a mixed method with quantitative data in the form of concept comprehension scores and qualitative data in the form of code networks and concept maps that represent the relationship between the learning process, the Ambon cultural context, and students' affective responses. The population and sample are 149 junior high school students in Ambon City, and among them, 8 students were taken as subjects. The instruments of this research consist of: GEFT based on   Ambon Cultural Illustration, concept comprehension tests, observation sheets, and interview guidelines. Data analysis uses quantitative and qualitative analysis using NVivo. The results showed that students with field independent (FI) cognitive styles achieved an average concept comprehension score of 86.6, higher than field dependent (FD) students with an average of 79.2. In addition, the cultural context of Ambon (barter system and Baileo houses) significantly helped FD students in concretizing the concept of comparison through scaffolding and group discussions. Furthermore, student affective engagement is increased through ethnomathematical integration.

Abstract

This study aimed to analyze the implementation of the GASING (Easy, Fun, and Enjoyable) method through the traditional Congka game in improving the mathematical conceptual understanding of students at MIT Daarunnaim Ambon. The study employed a mixed methods approach using a convergent parallel mixed methods design. The population, sample, and research subjects consisted of 20 fourth-grade students at MIT Daarunnaim Ambon. The research instruments included a mathematical conceptual understanding test, observation sheets, and interview guidelines. Quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and the Normalized Gain (N-Gain), while qualitative data were analyzed through data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings revealed that the implementation of the GASING method integrated with the traditional Congka game was carried out through the concrete, abstract, and mental calculation stages, creating an active, enjoyable, and contextual learning environment. The data analysis showed an average N-Gain score of 0.77, which falls into the high category. These findings indicate that the GASING method through the traditional Congka game is effective in improving the mathematical conceptual understanding of students at MIT Daarunnaim Ambon.
