“…The length of the bow for adults is 10-12 books while for children the length is up to six books (Supriyadi & Nurvitasari, 2019). Unlike the case found by Santos (2019) in agricultural activities in rural Sergipe, Brazil found the concept of measurement in units of length using an adult human body. In archery activities, if the archery is at close range then the arrow is pulled up to the front of the chest but if the target is far away then the arrow is pulled up past the chest.…”

This article aimed to explore ethnomathematics in the Malind tribe to strengthen the character values of elementary school students. The method used descriptive survey method with data collection techniques such as observation, interviews, and literature review. The researchers act as a human instrument. The qualitative data were obtained and then analyzed by paying attention to ethnomathematics material or theme. The results showed: firstly, ethnomathematics in the culture of the Malind tribe was found in activities of daily life such as the manufacture of farming tools, hunting, fishing, musical instruments, noken, ornaments and paintings, traditional ceremonies, life behaviors, and traditional games. Second, the attitude of responsibility, like to work hard, practice religious values, develop creativity, friendship, responsibility, the spirit of cooperation and kinship and tolerance is an integrated national character in the cultural values of the Malind tribe. Ethnomathematics can be integrated into learning mathematics in elementary schools Keywords: Ethnomathematics, Malind Tribe, Education Character

“…They are given the opportunity to review their work and assess themselves. The reflection provides more information about their progress and encourages them to take responsibility for their own learning (Santos, 2019). Compared to the findings of working on math problems, the authentic form of inquiry in working on geometry problems is simpler.…”

The purpose of this study is to investigate the aspects of communication and mathematical reasoning. In investigating the aspects of mathematical communication with an inquiry approach, of course there are several things observed related to learning mathematics. The focus of the material aims at observing communication and mathematical reasoning within the framework of inquiry, and the theory of planned behavior (TPB) is geometry and algebra. The research method used a qualitative research by looking at case studies with research subjects consisting of 31 prospective mathematics teachers in Semarang city. From the aspect of communication and mathematical reasoning that exists, it can be seen from the answers of 31 prospective mathematics teachers with an authentic point of view of inquiry and a theory of planned behavior for problem solving. From the observation, several cognitive processes are adapted to the authentic framework of inquiry and the theory of planned behavior for algebra and geometry material. In reasoning, a wedge appears between mathematical reasoning and communication adapted to the framework of inquiry and the theory of planned behavior. The contribution of this study is to determine the communication framework and mathematical reasoning from the theoretical aspects of planned behavior and inquiry. It is important to know aspects of communication and mathematical reasoning from a different perspective.

“…Salah satu penyebabnya adalah pembelajaran matematika di kelas kurangnya media pembelajaran yang kontekstual dan inovatif, masih terkesan formal (Sumiyati et al, 2018), sehingga peserta didik tidak dapat memahami materi dengan baik, menangkap makna dan manfaatnya dalam konteks kehidupan nyata. Materi matematika formal di sekolah yang disampaikan dengan pendekatan abstrak membuat peserta didik semakin kesulitan dalam memahami materi, padahal materi matematika banyak dijumpai dalam kehidupan nyata (Santos, 2019). Perlu suatu solusi untuk mengatasi masalah ini, salah satunya adalah pendekatan yang dapat menghubungkan materi matematika di sekolah dengan kehidupan nyata, sehingga peserta didik dapat termotivasi untuk belajar dan memahami materi matematika (Loli et al, 2018).…”

One of the reasons why mathematics is still a scourge for elementary school students in the delivery of mathematics material that seems formal and the lack of involvement of interesting and contextual learning media. It needs the right approach and media to present formal mathematics material so that students are able to understand the material and its benefits in real-life contexts. One of them is to use local culture and wisdom as a concrete medium. The purpose of this PKM program is to improve the knowledge and skills of SD YPPK St. Elementary School teachers. Tarsisius Biankuk through training in the use of ethnomathematical-based concrete media in learning mathematics. The implementation method is through training with the stages of preliminary study, implementation, and evaluation. The results of the service show that the teacher can explain some of the culture and local wisdom that can be developed as learning media such as miniature bevak, areca nut, fishing gear for hunting and catching fish, musical instruments tifa, and darts. In addition, the teacher is also able to demonstrate ethnomathematical-based concrete media well. The PKM lecturer team continues to monitor and assist partner schools until the implementation of mathematics learning by applying ethnomathematical-based concrete media in real classes.
