Abstract

The fundamental counting principle and counting problems, jointly called combinatorics in this study, commence in the last year of secondary school and proceeds in undergraduate studies and beyond. The South African secondary school situation reflect the same worldwide scenario where counting principles is regarded as difficult and poorly performed in the final national examinations. The purpose of this study was to explore undergraduate students’ mental constructions in solving counting problems against the backdrop of Grade 12 fundamental counting principles. The Action-Process-Object-Schema theory was used to describe undergraduate students’ thinking ways in combinatorics. A single case of a first-year class of 182 students was considered in this study, whereby they all wrote a task on combinatorics and a seven were further interviewed. The findings revealed that students were skilled at solving problems involving the counting principles, which was mainly step-by-step application of the formulae. This conception is at action level according to APOS theory, but the goal of teaching is to guide students to attain the object mental conception. Object conception allows for solving of diverse real-world counting problems and promotes mathematical thinking skills.

Abstract

The purpose of this article was to explore student teachers’ reflections on their preparation on ethnomathematics approaches based on their participation in one-day ethnomathematics workshop. This article emanate from the literature concern that pre-service mathematics teacher education is lamented for not equipping teachers with pedagogical knowledge and skills to contextualise mathematics topics through ethnomathematics approach. Mathematics student teachers complete their initial teacher education with underdeveloped knowledge of ethnomathematics and its implications in mathematics classrooms. In this article, which uses parts of the author’s doctoral study qualititaive research approach is adopted. A case study design was adopted to gain indepth student teachers’ reflections on the phenomenon under investigation. Purposive sampling was used to select 10 mathematics education student teachers enrolled in a 4-year Bachelor of Education in foundation phase, senior phase, and FET phase programmes. Focus group interviews was used as a data collection technique. The results of student teachers’ reflections are presented in three themes which emerged from this research: (1) ethnomathematics ushers pedagogical shift from traditional to innovative teaching approaches; (2) ethnomathematics approaches develop student teachers’ awareness of mathematics embedded in Morabaraba game; and (3) Integration of cultural techniques provide multiple strategies for teaching and learning multiplication concept. This article concludes that the ethnomathematics workshop successfully enhanced the understanding of mathematics student teachers regarding the use of cultural resources in mathematics learning. Keywords: ethnomathematics, contextualisation, student teachers, cultural resources, pre-service mathematics teacher education.

Abstract

Mathematics and culture are two things that are closely related to the activities of daily human life. Because Mathematics is a form of culture that is integrated in all people's lives. This means that, in culture we can find various kinds of mathematical concepts called ethnomathematics. Shibori is a technique of manipulating cloth originating from Japan, to create patterns through a dyeing method that has been around since the 8th century. The patterns created in Shibori generally depict an asymmetrical shape. In the Shibori motif there are several mathematical elements, one of which is the Frieze Group pattern. The Frieze Group is a subgroup of a symmetry group that is constructed by translation in one direction. The Frieze pattern has 7 (seven) types of patterns consisting of isometric combinations and can be classified as cyclic or dihedral groups. This study is an ethnographic study, with exploration and documentation of Shibori. The data analysis technique chosen is interview, observation and documentation. The research subjects were Shibori fabric craftsmen in Tulungagung district, East Java. The purpose of this research is to further examine the cultural patterns of Shibori Traditional cloth into Frieze patterns, as a way to understand mathematics through culture. The results of the research conducted have shown that there are mathematical concepts (geometry) in the Shibori motif, namely the Frieze pattern F1, F2, F3, F5, F6, F7. Keywords: Group Frizes; Ethnomathematics; Shibori

Abstract

The problem in the research is the difficulty of students in solving problems of the square root of integers (perfect squares) and cube roots of integers (cubic numbers) using an algorithm strategy better known as porogapit. This problem was obtained when giving tutoring to several junior high school students in Purworejo. The algorithm or porogapit strategy was taught when I was in elementary school. Still, as the learning model developed, the strategy could have been more efficient and took a long time. Only a few students remembered the strategy. Today's students even use a trial-and-error strategy: try the same multiplication number one by one or raise the numbers sequentially until the number in question. The trial and error strategy solved only the square root of integers (perfect square). In contrast, when there was a problem with the square root of imperfect integers (irrational squares), they still had difficulty solving it. The results showed that it was easier for students to master the factor tree strategy in solving square root problems than the algorithmic and trial-and-error strategies. Furthermore, the factor tree strategy can assist students in solving the square root problem, both the square root of perfect integers and the square root of imperfect numbers (irrational squares). Keywords: Students Learning Difficulties, Square Root Solutions.

Abstract

The aim of this study is to study the correlation of mathematical philosophy with cultural-based learning models. The method of research used is the method of library research, i.e. conducting studies related to mathematical philosophy, philosophical mathematics learning, culture-based mathematic learning, the connection of mathematically philosopher with ethnomatematics, the relationship of mathematic philosophies with cultural-based learning models. The results of the research have been obtained that the philosofy of maths, the model of learning based on culture, and ethnomathematics have close connections in the context of understanding and teaching of Mathematics. Mathematical philosophy deals with the foundations of mathematical epistemology and ontology, while a culture-based learning model emphasizes the integration of values and cultural contexts in mathematics learning. Ethnomatematics refers to the study of mathematical ways of thinking in a particular culture. By understanding the cultures, traditions, and world views of a particular society, ethnomathematics can help develop more culturally relevant and meaningful learning models. Therefore, the interrelationship between mathematical philosophy, culture-based learning models, and ethnomathematics can create a more holistic and contextual approach to mathematics learning. Keywords: Mathematical Philosophy, Cultural Based Learning Model, Ethnomathematics

Abstract

Interest in learning as a driving factor has an important role in improving students' mathematical literacy skills. One effort to attract students' attention is to make learning innovations such as incorporating ethnomathematics in learning. This study aims to describe students' mathematical literacy ability in solving ethnomathematical problems on spldv material in terms of student learning interests. This research is a qualitative research with a descriptive approach. The subjects of this study were 3 out of 29 grade VIIIB students who had been selected for high, medium and low learning interest categories. Data collection was carried out by questionnaires, tests and interviews. The main instrument in this study is an ethnomathematics-based mathematical literacy test. Data analysis techniques use interactive analysis. The results showed that the cause of students' low mathematical literacy ability was due to low interest in learning. Students with a high interest in learning are able to meet all indicators of mathematical literacy. Students with an interest in learning are having difficulty at number 1, but at question number 2 are able to meet all indicators of mathematical literacy. While students with low interest in learning for questions number 1 only meet indicators 1), 2), 3), 6) and at number 2 only meet indicators 1), 2), and 3) only. That is, students with high and moderate interest in learning have mathematical literacy skills that work well, while students with low interest in learning need teacher help to improve their mathematical literacy skills.
