Ethnomathematics: Exploration In Kebyok Anting- Anting Dance Floor Patterns For Learning The Concept Of Geometry

Abstract

Ethnomathematics is a realistic approach to learning mathematics that relates mathematical concepts to culture. By learning mathematics relevant to the student environment's culture, students will more easily understand mathematical concepts. This study aimed to examine theethnomathematical exploration of the Kebyok Anting-Anting dance floor pattern for learning the concept of geometry. This research is qualitative research using the ethnographic method. The instruments used are interviews, observation, and documentation. Data obtained through interviews and observations were analyzed using the analytical method described by Miles & Huberman, there are data reduction, data data display, and conclusion drawing/verification. The results showed that the ethnomathematical investigation in the Kebyok Anting-Anting dance floor patterns for learning the concept of geometry were horizontal lines, vertical lines, squares, rectangles, isosceles trapezoids, isosceles triangles, and parallelograms. It is hoped that various local cultures can be used to introduce other mathematical concepts.

Eksplorasi Keterkaitan antara Kearifan Lokal dan Kemampuan Pemecahan Masalah Matematika

“…Berdasarkan manfaat utama penggunaan kearifan lokal sebagai konteks dalam pembelajaran matematika adalah sebagai berikut: 1. Meningkatkan Kemampuan Pemecahan Masalah: Mengintegrasikan kearifan lokal ke dalam pembelajaran matematika dapat memfasilitasi pengembangan kemampuan berpikir tingkat tinggi dan kemampuan pemecahan masalah di kalangan siswa (Rohayati, 2022;Mulyatna et al, 2021) Dengan memasukkan unsur budaya dan pengetahuan tradisional, siswa didorong untuk berpikir kritis dan kreatif dalam memecahkan masalah matematika. 2.…”
