Abstract

This research aims to explore the implementation of Ethnomathematics of Banten Mukarnas batik motifs in improving students' mathematical reasoning and creative thinking skills. Ethnomathematics was chosen to connect mathematical concepts with local culture so that students can see the relevance of mathematics in everyday life. The method used in this study is a quasy experiment with a Pretest-Postest Control Group Design. The sample was selected using random sampling technique. The data collection technique was carried out by providing test questions for students' mathematical creative thinking ability. The analysis was carried out quantitatively on the learning process and measuring students' creative thinking skills before and after the application of Ethnomathematics. From the results of the posttest data analysis of the experimental and control classes, the sig. (2-tailed) of 0.001 < 0.05 and an average of 89.42 in the experimental class, while in the control class, the average was 76.61. So, it can be concluded that there is a difference in the ability of students to think creatively and mathematically using the ethnomathematics-based learning model assisted by the Banten Mukarnas batik motif compared to students who obtain the conventional learning model

Abstract

The fundamental problem that causes this study is that the low mathematical reasoning ability of students and culture in Banten has not been explored optimally for classroom learning. This study aims to compare the mathematical reasoning ability of students who use ethnomathematics-based learning with conventional learning, as well as mathematical elements contained in Banten culture. The target is junior high school students with transformation materials. The approach used by the researcher is quantitative research. The research method used is a quasi-experiment with a pre-post control group design. The population in this study is grade IX students of SMP PGRI 1 Tangerang with a sample of 72 students. Researchers used independent sample t-tests to analyze the data. The results obtained by the researcher were the average post-test score of the experimental class of 72.56 and the control class of 54.11, which means that ethnomathematics-based learning is better than conventional learning in optimizing students' mathematical reasoning skills. Creativity is needed to find the elements of mathematics contained in Banten culture, and then it is necessary to conduct further research whether ethnomathematics-based learning can improve students' abilities other than reasoning.
