Abstract

Learning assessment based on local wisdom is essential in interpreting cultural diversity. This Science and Technology for the Community (IbM) activity aims to socialize ethnomathematics-based mathematics learning assessments, especially Banyumasan art culture. The target of this activity is UMP elementary school teachers in general and UMP elementary mathematics teachers in particular, totaling 22 people. The methods and strategies used in implementing this IbM are starting with a preetest to determine the initial ability of participants, given treatment through book review, discussion, question and answer, simulation and ending with postest and reflection. This activity results in the increasing insight of UMP elementary school teachers on ethnomathematics-based learning assessment, especially Banyumasan art with an average gain of as much as possible. 17.85. The participants' responses to the implementation of this activity were adding insight (59%), valid (19%), welcoming positively and expressing pleasure (22%).

Abstract

Hok Tek Bio Temple in Purwokerto, Central Java, Indonesia as one of the cultural sites rich in symmetrical architectural elements, carved ornaments, and geometric shapes, offers a unique opportunity for students to visualize various types of geometric transformations. However, so far it has not been widely used as a medium in mathematics learning. This study aims to explore Hok Tek Bio Temple in Purwokerto as a medium for mathematics learning through ethnomathematics studies. This study uses a qualitative method with an ethnographic approach. Data collection techniques use in-depth interviews, observations and document studies. The results of the study show that most of the Hok Tek Bio Temple ornaments are built using geometric transformation patterns, both reflection, translation, dilation, and symmetry, which have various philosophical meanings in life. The results of this study can be recommended as a medium for learning geometry based on local wisdom and at the same time character education
