Abstract

Mathematics has an important role in the development of critical and logical thinking skills. However, the results of the PISA survey show that the mathematical literacy of students in Indonesia is still low. One approach that can be applied to improve critical thinking skills in mathematics learning is ethnomathematics. Ethnomathematics connects mathematical concepts with cultural elements, thus making learning more contextual and engaging. This study aims to analyze students' critical thinking skills in solving ethnomathematics problems. Based on the results of observations and interviews, it was found that most students still tend to memorize without understanding or critically analyzing information. The implementation of ethnomathematics in learning is expected to help students understand that mathematics is not only abstract but also related to daily life and culture. This study highlights the importance of the application of ethnomathematics in improving mathematical literacy and critical thinking of students, by taking the example of a tobacco warehouse in Jember Regency as one of the cultural objects that can be integrated in mathematics learning.

Abstract

Ethnomathematics which link culture with community activities, certainly has characteristics that support each other with mathematical concepts. Ethnomathematics is mathematics practiced by specific cultural groups in society. This study examines the mathematical concepts in the Gayasan tobacco warehouse building in Jenggawah District, Jember Regency. In the study, researchers used qualitative descriptive research with an ethnographic approach. Data collection techniques are observation, interviews, and documentation. Data analysis techniques are done through data reduction, presentation, analysis, and exposure. The results showed that in the Gayasan tobacco warehouse, Jenggawah District, Jember Regency, there are mathematical concepts that will be studied further in the future. The author focuses on applying geometric concepts such as building flat, building space, lines, angles, number patterns, congruence, and awakening in research. Each longkang is bordered with bamboos that function as poles, also known as "longkang sides," which have different distances and are arranged into a pattern of numbers. The conclusion is that the structure of tobacco warehouses contains mathematical concepts such as number patterns, angles, flat builds, space builds, lines, congruents, and awakening
