The Cultural Diversity and Its Role in Mathematical Activities

Abstract

Mathematics is subject that can abstract very fast and when loss self-relation to real life which students know out of school then is meaningless for some of them. This meaningless may be the result of cultural and ethnical changes of school. In this study, it is be tried that consider to cultural and ethnical changes and diversities of mathematics students and their how learning. Then Hormozgan province; Kish Island is be selected for cultural diversities and via semi multi-steps cluster sampling method, twenty seven teachers of mathematics and forty mathematics students at high school level are be chosen. Through questionnaireresearcher made, for the study of two hypothesis, related questions are be implemented for teachers and students. The results of study via statistics tests indicated that teachers of mathematics have not cultural diversities management regard to scientific and cooperative activities of mathematics students with cultural diversities but their students belief to this case.
