Abstract

Major changes in education caused by the Covid-19 Pandemic led to a decrease in students' thinking skills. Therefore, it is very important to analyze how the level of thinking ability of students in this era. The purpose of this study was to analyze students' higher order mathematical thinking skills in the era of Covid-19 Pandemic by using three stages of metaphorical thinking. This research was conducted in the even semester. The subjects in this study were 11 students of class IIB Mathematics Education Study Program, Universitas Mahasaraswati Denpasar. This research uses descriptive analysis techniques. Data collection was carried out through tests, interviews, observation, and documentation. The results showed that the students' high-order mathematical thinking skills were very low where only 20% of students answered correctly at the grounding metaphors stage, 25% at the linking metaphors stage, and only 25% at the redefinitional metaphors stage. In general, this phenomenon occurs due to the reduced opportunities for students to interact and discuss during online learning in the Pandemic era which also results in a lack of opportunities for students to exchange understanding and knowledge. Students also cannot understand problems in depth and relate concepts to everyday life.

Abstract

Despite the growing recognition of ethnomathematics in enriching student learning experiences, few studies have explored the mathematical content, particularly probability and statistics, embedded within specific indigenous Javanese games. This research addresses this oversight by focusing on the traditional game of Paser, an ancestral practice from Yogyakarta, offering a unique empirical bridge between local cultural philosophy and advanced mathematical concepts. The study aims to systematically identify and analyze the representations of probability and statistical reasoning inherent in the Paser gameplay. Data were rigorously gathered through ethnographic methods, specifically using participant observation, documentation, and semi-structured interviews with cultural practitioners. The findings demonstrate that Paser effectively integrates elements of probability, statistical distribution, and symbolic meaning. A key discovery is the profound link between the Javanese philosophy of hening-hening (inner calm) and an intuitive strategic approach to managing statistical variability, showcasing a deep integration of cultural values and mathematical reasoning. These insights highlight Paser's substantial potential as a contextual medium for developing culturally responsive mathematics education. By situating probability and statistics within a familiar cultural practice, this study not only contributes significantly to the ethnomathematics literature but also provides a tested model for strengthening students' appreciation of their cultural heritage alongside their mathematical literacy.
