Abstract

This study examines the application of ethnomathematics in the buying and selling transactions of cracker traders at Puger Market, Jember Regency. Ethnomathematics is a study that integrates mathematical elements with community culture. The purpose of this study is to identify how mathematical practices, particularly arithmetic operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, are applied contextually by traders in their daily economic activities. This study uses ethnography with a descriptive approach, collecting data through observation, interviews, and documentation. The results show that traders are able to calculate prices and change manually quickly and accurately, even without formal mathematics education. This suggests that the practice of counting in trading activities reflects the real application of mathematical concepts in everyday life and can be used as a source of contextual learning in schools.

Abstract

When solving math problems, students make spontaneous movements called gestures. The purpose of this research is to find out the variations of gestures that appear when students solve math problems related to rotational geometry based on local wisdom. The qualitative approach used in this research is a descriptive research type. Test questions, documentation results, observations, and interviews were used as research instruments. The subjects of this study were four students in class XI for the 2022/2023 academic year at SMA Negeri Balung. The results showed that the group of students with high abilities used gestures more than students with low abilities. Students with high ability in solving math problems use 11 iconic gestures, 8 metaphoric gestures, and 24 deictic gestures. Meanwhile, the group of students with low abilities used 7 iconic gestures, 6 metaphoric gestures, and 12 deictic gestures. Based on the distribution of the number of student gestures when solving math problems, the gesture that appears the most is the deictic gesture, and the one that appears the least is the metaphoric gesture.

Abstract

Reflective abstraction is a process of reflection on previously learned concepts and applied in new situations. The purpose of this study is to describe the reflective abstraction ability of junior high school students in solving math problems in terms of mathematical ability. In this study using qualitative research type. The data sources for this study were 4 students of class VIII, namely 2 students with high ability and 2 students with low ability. The results showed that students who have high ability, recognition level to remember and identify previous activities related to the problem at hand. At the representation level, students can translate information into mathematical models correctly. At the structural abstraction level, students can solve problems correctly, and are able to overcome difficulties in solving problems. At the structural awareness level, students are able to provide arguments about the results of the answers that have been done. While students with low ability, at the recognition level are able to remember previous activities related to the problem at hand. At the representation level, students are able to translate information into mathematical models, but students are less careful and wrong so that at the structural abstraction level students are able to solve problems, but the final results obtained are not correct. At the structural awareness level, students are able to solve and explain the steps in the problem. Based on the results of the study, teachers should guide students by providing problem exercises that can increase reflective abstraction, especially considering student responses and learning outcomes collected from high and low ability students. For this reason, further research needs to be carried out with other student data sources.

Abstract

Mathematics is one of the branches of science that continues to develop to meet human and technological needs. This means that students must improve their ability to think systematically, analytically, logically, critically, and creatively. The main problem in this study is how to describe students' critical thinking skills in solving math problems through the ethnomathematics approach. The purpose of this study is to describe students' critical thinking skills in solving math problems using the ethnomathematics approach, which combines mathematical materials with their local culture. This research uses a qualitative descriptive approach with research instruments in the form of tests and interviews involving data analysis from interviews and test answers.  The results showed that high ability students (KT1 and KT2) met all four indicators, namely interpretation, analysis, evaluation, and inference. Students with low ability (KR1 and KR2) only fulfill two indicators, namely analysis and interpretation. This study also shows that the traditional game of dam-daman is effective in describing students' mathematical ability to think critically. To help low-ability students fulfill all critical thinking criteria, further research is needed.

Abstract

Mathematics is often perceived as an abstract discipline, detached from everyday life. However, mathematical concepts can actually be found within local cultures, one example being in the costume of Tari Lahbako, a traditional dance from Jember that represents the life of tobacco workers. This study aims to explore elements of ethnomathematics in the Tari Lahbako costume using a descriptive approach with ethnographic methods. Data were collected through direct observation and in-depth interviews at two dance studios: Sanggar Sweeta Collection and Sanggar Ninien Ariesitta. The results indicate that costume elements such as the hair bun, apron, skirt, and other accessories contain geometric shapes such as squares, circles, rhombuses, trapezoids, as well as concepts of reflection, parallel lines, and right angles. In addition, the presence of symmetrical patterns and regularity in the costume reveals an intuitive mathematical understanding by the designers. Therefore, the Tari Lahbako costume not only holds aesthetic and cultural value but also has great potential to be used as a medium for contextual mathematics learning. Through an ethnomathematical approach, students can understand mathematical concepts more concretely, meaningfully, and rooted in local wisdom
