Abstract

Purpose of the study: The aim of this study is to explore the relationship between students' problem-solving abilities and mathematical thinking, and to identify how these two abilities can support each other in the development of holistic mathematical skills in secondary education. Methodology: This study uses quantitative methods with correlational and survey designs. The instrument used is a written test, consisting of story questions and multiple choices. Data collection is done through structured observation and documentation. The software used for data analysis is SPSS, with descriptive and inferential statistical analysis techniques, including the Pearson correlation test and simple linear regression test. Main Findings: The results of the study showed that there was a strong and significant relationship between problem-solving ability and mathematical thinking of students in grades 11.F1 (r = 0.74, p = 0.001) and 11.F3 (r = 0.68, p = 0.003). Problem-solving ability was also shown to predict mathematical thinking with a significant effect (R² = 0.55, p = 0.001). The problem-solving factor can explain 55% of the variance in students' mathematical thinking. Novelty/Originality of this study: This study shows a strong correlation between secondary school pupils' mathematical thinking and problem-solving skills, particularly when it comes to number-related content. The study's originality is the finding that students' problem-solving skills can anticipate how their mathematical thinking will evolve, offering fresh perspectives for creating learning models that would simultaneously improve both abilities.

Abstract

Purpose of the study: This study aims to analyze the influence of traditional navigation knowledge and the use of ethnomathematics on the success of traditional fishermen's operations in Indonesia. Using a quantitative approach and the Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) method. The survey was conducted on traditional fishermen who have been operating for more than five years, utilizing local navigation knowledge, and applying mathematical principles in going to sea. Methodology: The research instrument was a closed questionnaire with a 5-point Likert scale to measure three main variables: Traditional Navigation Knowledge, Utilization of Ethnomathematics, and Success of Traditional Fishermen's Operations. Data were analyzed through validity, reliability, and structural model tests. Main Findings: results show that traditional navigation knowledge has a significant effect on the success of fishermen's operations with a path coefficient of 0.45 (p = 0.002). The use of ethnomathematics also has a significant effect with a path coefficient of 0.36 (p = 0.005). Overall, the two independent variables explain 60% of the variation in the success of fishermen's operations. This finding emphasizes the importance of integrating local wisdom and scientific approaches to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of traditional fishermen's activities. Novelty/Originality of this study: This research has a novelty by integrating two approaches, namely the influence of traditional navigation knowledge and ethnomathematics, and exploring mathematical concepts in local culture. The results provide an important contribution in developing a model that combines local wisdom and scientific principles to support the sustainability of traditional fishermen's operations in Indonesia.
