Abstract

The inclusion of the natural environment and spiritual values in traditional healing mantras has been part of the lives of traditional communities in various cultures around the world, including the Malay community in Karimunting village, West Kalimantan, Indonesia. This study aims to describe the elements of the natural environment and spiritual values in the healing mantras of the Malay community in Karimunting Village by applying Greg Garrard’s ecocriticism approach. The data in this study was collected through observation and in-depth interviews with three belian in Karimunting village. The data obtained was subsequently recorded, transcribed, and analyzed using thematic analysis techniques. The research findings reveal that there are ten healing mantras practiced by the belian of the Malay community in Karimunting Village. Each mantra functions not only as a medium of healing but also as a representation of the interconnectedness between humans, the natural environment, and spiritual forces. Elements of the natural environment are reflected in the use of components such as leaves, water, wood, stones, wind, and animals, which are positioned as active entities possessing healing energy and symbols of ecological balance. Meanwhile, the dimension of spirituality is manifested through religious diction, such as the invocation of the names of Allah and the Prophet Muhammad, underscoring the belief that recovery ultimately originates from Divine power. This research contributes not only as an inventory of oral literature and local wisdom of the Malay community in utilizing their natural environment but also as a reference for similar research in the future.

Abstract

This article formulates an integrative model of language literacy and numeracy for analysing junior high school students' conceptual understanding of geometry through the Pirie-Kieren theory. The study is positioned as a descriptive-exploratory qualitative design involving 60 Grade VII students of SMPN 21 Pontianak in the initial mapping stage and six purposively selected students for in-depth analysis. Data are designed to be collected through conceptual understanding tests, literacy-based tasks, classroom observation, semi-structured interviews, and learning artefacts. The analysis combines open coding, axial coding, selective coding, triangulation, and the eight Pirie-Kieren layers. The resulting model connects text comprehension, verbal-visual-symbolic representation, numerical reasoning, folding back, and conceptual-linguistic-representational-numerical obstacles in learning surface area of polyhedra. Referring to Pirie and Kieren's layered understanding, Duval's representation theory, and Moschkovich's mathematical literacy perspective, this article contributes a more integrated analytical frame for mathematics education by positioning geometry understanding as a dynamic interaction among language, representation, and numeracy.
