Abstract

This study aims to determine students' creative thinking abilities in addition operations using ethnomathematics based on carom media. This study uses a qualitative approach with a descriptive type. The qualitative approach was chosen because this study aims to understand in depth the process of learning mathematics through an ethnomathematics approach using carom media and its impact on children's creative thinking abilities. Data collection techniques were carried out using creative thinking ability tests through essay questions, observation sheets to measure creative thinking abilities, and student interview sheets. Based on the results of the analysis conducted, students' creative thinking abilities have generally shown quite good development. Of the four indicators studied, the aspects of fluency and originality appear more prominent than the other two aspects. Meanwhile, the ability to decompose (elaboration) remains a weakness that requires special attention in the learning process. These findings demonstrate the existence of strengths that can be further developed as well as challenges that need to be addressed. In the fluency indicator, most students are able to generate ideas fluently and quickly. This is evident from 44% of students who are in the very good category and 36% who are in the good category. The originality indicator also shows quite encouraging results. A total of 40% of students were in the excellent category, while 28% were in the good category. In the flexibility indicator, the distribution of student abilities appeared more even. Some students were already in the excellent (32%) and good (24%) categories, but quite a number were still in the fair (28%) and even poor (16%) categories. The elaboration indicator was the weakest aspect. The majority of students (44%) only achieved the adequate category, and only 16% were able to achieve the excellent category. This means that most students still struggle to develop their ideas into more detail and depth. Overall, it can be concluded that students' creative thinking skills are quite good, especially in the aspects of fluency and originality.

Abstract

Ethnomathematics is a study that investigates mathematical concepts in a cultural context, applied to the design and objects of cultural diversity, including tourist attractions. This study explores the concept of ethnomathematics at the 7 Bidadari Waterfall tourist attraction located in Rowosari village, focusing on the interaction between mathematics and the surrounding culture. The findings of this study highlight that the 7 Bidadari Waterfall tourist attraction is not only a tourist destination but also reflects the mathematical values inherent in the activities of the local community. The main focus of this study is to explore the mathematical concepts contained in the design of the 7 Bidadari Waterfall tourist attraction, with an emphasis on geometric patterns and mathematical proportions seen in the decoration of the tourist attraction and the surrounding natural features. The research method used is a qualitative one with an ethnographic approach, where observation and documentation are used as data collection tools. The data analysis process is carried out through several steps, namely, reduction, presentation, and interpretation. The results of the study indicate that the 7 Bidadari Waterfall, in addition to functioning as a vacation spot, also reflects mathematical values that are useful for learning. This research offers fresh viewpoints about the relationship between mathematics, culture, and architecture at the 7 Bidadari Waterfall.

Abstract

Mathematics is a subject that plays a crucial role in developing logical and analytical thinking skills. However, students’ learning outcomes and interest in mathematics remain relatively low. One approach to address this issue is to utilize educational technology, such as the Photomath app. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of using the Photomath app on students’ learning outcomes and interest in mathematics. The study employed a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental design of the nonequivalent control group type, involving three groups: an experimental group, a combination group, and a control group. The research instruments consisted of a learning outcomes test and a learning interest questionnaire. Data were analyzed using One-Way ANOVA, Tukey’s Post Hoc test, and MANOVA. The results showed that there was a significant difference in mathematics learning outcomes among the groups based on the One-Way ANOVA test (F(2,87) = 30.157; p < 0.001). The Tukey test results indicated that the experimental group had significantly higher learning outcomes compared to the other groups. Furthermore, the MANOVA results indicate that the use of Photomath simultaneously influences both students’ learning outcomes and their interest in learning. Thus, the Photomath app is effective as a learning medium for improving students’ mathematics learning outcomes and interest in learning. Future research is recommended to include other variables, different educational levels, and a longer treatment duration to obtain more comprehensive findings
