Penerapan Pembelajaran Etnomatematika Sunda melalui Permainan Engklek untuk Meningkatkan Kemampuan Representasi Matematis Siswa SD Kelas V

Abstract

Sundanese ethnomathematics learning is in mathematics combined with Sundanese culture. At the time of observation at SDN Kragilan 1, almost all learning activities still used the lecture method and rarely used the help of learning media which made children get bored and bored more quickly during learning activities. Therefore researchers try to overcome this by implementing Sundanese ethnomathematics learning through crank games, this learning applies learning while playing which aims to make students enthusiastic, active, and even more enthusiastic in learning mathematics and getting to know Sundanese culture. The purpose of this research is the application of Sundanese ethnomathematical learning through Engklek games to explore and understand local mathematical wisdom inherent in Sundanese culture. Engaging students in traditional games like these will help them recognize mathematical patterns. This study used a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental method and used the Post-test Only Control Group Design. The number of samples taken consisted of the VA class as the experimental class which consisted of 30 students and the VB class as the control class which consisted of 30 students. The data analysis techniques used in this study are the normality test, homogeneity test and the Mann-Whitney test. After the Mann-Whitney test was carried out, the Asymp value was obtained. Sig (2-tailed) is 0,036. Because this value is <0,05, it can be concluded that the mathematical representation ability of students who take Sundanese ethnomathematics learning is better than students who learn by expository learning.
