Abstract

The English textbook is not only about the language but also brings the culture. Sometimes the culture in the textbook is only from the western countries, so the students do not know much about their own culture. This study discusses the cultural representation in English textbooks that are used in Indonesian schools. The study used a qualitative method with content analysis. The data were three English textbooks. The result shows that the culture in the textbooks is dominated by the target culture and the local culture is still small, and also the tasks only ask the students to identify the culture and not to compare it. Therefore the textbook writers should give more portion to the local culture.

Abstract

The low mathematical problem-solving ability of elementary school students and the fact that mathematics instruction has not fully connected mathematical concepts with real-life contexts are the main problems addressed in this study. In addition, learning about length and weight measurement tends to be procedural, resulting in limited opportunities for students to develop deeper thinking skills. This study aims to analyze the effect of implementing Realistic Mathematics Education (RME) materials on length and weight measurement toward the problem-solving abilities of third-grade elementary school students. This research employed an experimental method using a quasi-experimental design in the form of a nonequivalent control group design. The subjects of the study were third-grade elementary school students divided into an experimental class and a control class. Data were collected using a measurement technique with essay test instruments. The data analysis methods included descriptive and inferential analyses through mean difference tests and effect size calculations. The results showed that the problem-solving abilities of students in the experimental class were categorized as better than those in the control class. Hypothesis testing indicated a significant difference between the two groups. The effect size analysis demonstrated that the implementation of Realistic Mathematics Education materials had a significant influence on students’ problem-solving abilities. The implications of this study indicate that the Realistic Mathematics Education approach is effective in improving elementary school students’ problem-solving abilities, particularly in the topic of length and weight measurement, and therefore can be used as an alternative mathematics learning strategy in elementary schools.

Abstract

Indonesia has many ethnics, religions, and languages, so the students in one class are not the same. The language subject can be used to teach them to respect each other. This article discusses multicultural education through language learning to promote tolerance and inclusion. The method used is literature review from international journals about multicultural education and intercultural competence. The result shows that language learning can promote tolerance if the material contains various cultures, the students are asked to discuss and to see from the perspective of the other people, and the teacher gives a chance for all the students to speak. But if the culture is only presented like the information about the food and the festival, the students will not learn to respect the difference. Therefore the teacher must design the material and the activity carefully.
