Abstract

This study aims to analyze the contribution of qualitative research approaches, particularly ethnography and case studies, in unveiling the interplay between classroom culture and students' mathematical thinking processes. Using a literature review method, this study synthesizes scholarly sources from 2015 to 2025 to deepen the understanding of how social context influences cognitive construction in mathematics education. The findings reveal that mathematical thinking is not an isolated cognitive activity but is deeply embedded in classroom culture. Ethnographic approaches effectively uncover the "hidden curriculum" and cultural norms that shape learning, while case studies provide granular insights into students' specific cognitive hurdles. The integration of these approaches with constructivist pedagogies, such as Realistic Mathematics Education (PMRI), offers a robust framework for creating more meaningful and culturally responsive learning environments. This study concludes that qualitative inquiry is essential for bridging the gap between individual cognition and social context, providing a humanistic perspective on mathematics education.

Abstract

Previous research has provided limited evidence on overall and indicator-level differences in written mathematical communication and disposition following didactical design implementation. This study examined these differences among 51 Grade 7 students from two intact classes at a public junior high school in Bandar Lampung, Indonesia. Using a quasi-experimental posttest-only nonequivalent-groups design, 27 students received five lessons incorporating comics, cards, structured writing, discussion, and verification, while 24 received the teacher's usual instruction. Data were collected using a written communication test and a disposition questionnaire and analyzed using independent-samples t tests and Mann–Whitney U tests. Overall written communication differed significantly between groups (p = .003), particularly Writing Text (p < .001), whereas Mathematical Expression (p = .138) and Drawing (p = .139) did not. Overall disposition showed no significant difference (p = .363), although Willingness to Share Ideas with Others (p = .002) and Recognizing the Usefulness of Mathematics in Other Fields and Everyday Life (p = .021) differed significantly. These findings demonstrate the value of examining individual indicators alongside overall scores, particularly when aggregate differences are nonsignificant.
