The view of mathematics education as science

Abstract

This paper will discuss the view of mathematics education as science. This study is the result of a variety of relevant literature related to mathematics education as a science in a scientific discipline. Philosophically, mathematics is considered as the queen of science used by humans in everyday life. While knowledge itself is closely related to philosophy, where these two terms cannot be separated from each other. The science of studying natural phenomena itself. Science is the product of epistemology, ontology, and axiology. Philosophy and science are two similarities in that both seek the truth. A person who seeks the truth is a philosopher or philosopher. The source of philosophy is man, reason, and the human heart. For example, mathematics. Mathematics is a science about reasoning, about patterns and mathematics is the queen of science and at the same time a servant of science. Mathematics education is a mathematics lesson that makes students build logical thinking and build mathematical knowledge.

Philosophy-Infused Culture-Based Learning Models In Mathematics Education

“…Designing culturally-rich local games for mathematics learning allows students to explore mathematical concepts within the context of their communities (Susanti et al, 2020). The philosophy of mathematics education plays a pivotal role in shaping the direction of mathematics as an academic discipline and promoting critical thinking and reasoning abilities among students (Telaumbanua et al, 2023;Mackrell & Pratt, 2017;Situngkir & Dewi, 2022). This research examines the interplay between mathematics and educational philosophy to enhance the quality of mathematics education (Sari & Armanto, 2022;Simangunsong, 2021;Schulz, 2009;Campos, 2010).…”
