Abstract

Mathematics is often regarded as an abstract and formal discipline, which can create a disconnect between students’ understanding and real-worldapplications. Ethnomathematics offers a culturally responsive approach by uncovering mathematical practices embedded in local traditions, thereby making mathematics learning more contextual and meaningful. This study aims to explore the ethnomathematical elements found in traditional Javanese foods getuk and kue lapis and analyze their potential as culturally grounded resources for mathematics instruction. Employing a qualitative approach with ethnographic methods, the research was conducted in a Javanese community in North Sumatra, involving traditional food makers as key informants. Data were collected through direct observation, semi-structured interviews, and documentation. The analysis revealed the presence of mathematical concepts such as geometric shapes, proportional reasoning, repeated patterns, and symmetry in food preparation and presentation. These findings suggest that traditional food-making processes can serve as contextual media for teaching geometry and proportional concepts at the primary and secondary school levels. Integrating such ethnomathematical elements into instructional materials not only enhances conceptual understanding but also fosters cultural awareness and appreciation. Therefore, this study highlights the relevance of local cultural practices as an innovative foundation for the development ofculturally contextualized mathematics education.

Abstract

This research aims to describe cognitive conflicts that occur in first year students when solving indefinite form limit problems. This research is qualitative research with the researcher as the main instrument. Research method with stages of preparation, data collection, transcript and analysis. A total of 8 students from private universities were given mathematics problem sheets, containing limit questions of indefinite form consisting of one number and worked on for 30 minutes. Two students were selected as research subjects based on indicators of conflict in the components of routines and were interviewed in a semi-structured and in-depth manner to explore further information about the causes of conflict. The results of the research showed that the research subjects were able to solve the questions given but there were errors that triggered conflict, both ritualized and exploratory. . Ritualized due to weak understanding of material previously received in high school.  Exploratory, which is a new or different method because it is not well understood, can cause cognitive conflict. Good mastery and understanding of the material can reduce the occurrence of cognitive conflicts in students' minds.

Abstract

One of the learning challenges during the Covid-19 pandemic is the low mastery of material by students, especially abstract material such as statistics. As an alternative solution, statistical learning is carried out using problem solving video tutorials assisted by SPSS to further measure its effectiveness on academic performance. This type of research is true-experimental with Posttest Only Control Design. The sample of this study was students of the management study program of the Faculty of Social and Political Sciences, Ninebelas November Kolaka University who took statistics courses in the odd semester of the 2020 Academic Year which consisted of two classes, namely class C with 32 students and class D with 33 students. The instrument used is a learning achievement test in the form of an essay. The research data were analyzed using one sample t-test and independent sample t-test. The results of data analysis showed that the statistical performance of students taught using SPSS-assisted videos was better than those taught using learning modules.

Abstract

This study explores the mathematical concepts embedded in the cultural practices and local wisdom of the Mekongga people in Kolaka and East Kolaka Regencies, Southeast Sulawesi, Indonesia. Guided by an ethnomathematical perspective, the research aims to identify and describe how mathematical reasoning manifests through traditional architecture, art, rituals, and social systems. A qualitative approach with an ethnographic design was employed, involving purposive interviews with cultural informants such as the Deputy King of Mekongga, traditional artists, and Tolea (customary leaders). Data were collected through observation, interviews, documentation, and literature review, then analyzed using the Miles and Huberman interactive model consisting of data reduction, display, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that Mekongga culture embodies diverse mathematical ideas: set theory in cultural classification and royal genealogies; geometry and proportion in traditional houses; transformational geometry in woven fabrics and decorative motifs; plane geometry and ratio in the kalo sara symbol; social arithmetic in mahar (dowry) traditions; and alternative numeral systems in historical records. These results confirm that mathematical thought is inherently present within local wisdom and daily life. Theoretically, this study strengthens D’Ambrosio’s framework of ethnomathematics by demonstrating how indigenous practices represent mathematical reasoning. Pedagogically, it highlights the potential of Mekongga cultural elements as contextual and meaningful learning resources, bridging abstract mathematical concepts with cultural understanding in mathematics education.

Abstract

Critical thinking equips a person with the competencies needed and develops the power of the mind extensively. The development of critical thinking is known as an essential goal in educational systems.  However, the assessment of critical thinking is not an easy feat. This study validated the critical thinking skills test in mathematics for senior high school students based on a model of critical thinking skills and learning areas of the K to 12 Mathematics Curriculum. The instrument validation process to 902 respondents through cluster sampling from different senior high schools. With an initial 45 items on three dimensions of critical thinking, the test's final form consisted of only 30 items after the items were screened based on the validation process. The content validation was carried out through an expert examination of the items and a comparison of the test results developed with Cornell's critical thinking for criterion-related validity evidence (r = 0.299, p 0.01). Construct validation by factor analysis, and results generated 13 factors accounting for 58.51% of the variance. These results indicated that the developed mathematics critical thinking test measured other than the specified critical thinking skills model used. The developed test may try to assess students' critical thinking in the context of mathematics. Furthermore, this may contribute to promoting teaching and assessment strategies gears towards the development of students' mathematical critical thinking.

Abstract

This study aims to determine (1) students' mathematics learning outcomes in the Connecting, Organizing, Reflecting, and Extending (CORE) model, (2) students' mathematics learning outcomes in the problem-based learning model (PBL), (3) comparison of the effectiveness of the learning model CORE and PBL based on learning outcomes. The type of this research is experimental research. Samples were taken using random cluster sampling in class IX students of SMP Negeri 03 Poleang. The results obtained are class IX.A with 20 students as the class utilizing the CORE model and class IXB with 21 students as the class using the PBL model. Data retrieval is done through a test technique to obtain data on students' mathematics learning outcomes. The research data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistical methods. The average value of students' mathematics learning outcomes in the CORE model is 83.9, while the value of PBL class mathematics learning outcomes is 77.3. Inferentially, hypothesis testing using t-test obtained tcount = 2.743 ttable = 1.685 with a significant level = 0.05, indicating a significant difference in mathematics learning outcomes between students taught by the CORE and PBL learning models. Thus, applying the CORE learning model is more effective than applying the PBL model in terms of students' mathematics learning outcomes

Abstract

Mathematics is related to numbers and formulas, as well as its abstract nature. So that understanding it is not by memorizing. It requires the ability to solve mathematical problems. In solving mathematical problems it requires critical thinking skills. Problem-based learning is the right way to train students to think critically, so problem-based learning according to the purpose of improving critical thinking. To find out problem-based learning is able to improve students' critical thinking skills, the Transcript Based Lesson Analysis (TBLA) learning analysis method is used. This research is an exploratory qualitative research that aims to describe critical thinking and tendencies in problem-based mathematics learning using TBLA for students in class VIII-D at SMP Negeri 1 Gresik. The supporting instrumens in this study consisted of documentation using an audio-visual recording device and sheets for lesson analysis the TBLA model.  From the results of the TBLA analysis, both based on the number of letters and categorization, it can be seen that problem-based mathematics learning tends to be dominated by students. In the results of the TBLA analysis based on the number of letters, it appears that students are active in communicating with other students, only occasionally asking the teacher about things that need more explanation. Likewise, the results of the TBLA analysis based on categorization show that students have critical thinking skills, namely students can show 6 critical thinking indicators in this study, namely focus, reason, inference, situation, clarity and overview.
