This study reports on in-service mathematics teachers' views of geometry in the context of ethnomathematics. A convergent parallel mixed method design which includes both quantitative and qualitative methods was used to provide a deeper understanding of how the participants view geometry from an ethnomathematics perspective. Questionnaires and…

In response to the challenge of geometry's abstract and less engaging nature for students, this study explored the potential of connecting geometry to cultural elements, specifically geometric ornaments found in various cultures worldwide. Geometric ornaments, laden with cultural and spiritual significance, serve as a bridge between mathematics…

This study aims to determine the effectiveness of ethnomathematics-based learning on students' mathematical literacy through a meta-analysis study. Primary studies were collected from Google Scholar and ERIC databases based on the inclusion criteria. The results of the literature review obtained 16 studies, either from theses, proceedings, or…

One way to preserve culture in education is through ethnoscience-based learning, especially in chemical materials linked to various fields of science in life, including social and cultural. Ethnoscience is a process of reconstructing indigenous science knowledge with scientific science. This research aims to explore trends in ethnoscience-based…

This article analyzes elementary school students' didactical situation in traditional games through ethnomathematics learning. The conventional game studied was "Endog-Endogan" or egg games from the Sundanese culture, West Java, Indonesia. This qualitative and quantitative study applied the design of the didactic learning stage. The…

Purpose: Ethnomathematics can help understand math concepts but is challenging in countries like Indonesia and Thailand due to its complexity. This study explores how math educators in these countries view integrating ethnomathematics into teaching. The purpose of this study is to see its importance in helping students understand and apply math…

This article discusses Cigugur indigenous communities' custom in carrying out calculation practices to determine the best time to start house construction activities. The realist ethnography approach was used in this study through exploratory research. The ethnomathematics design adopted four elements: generic questions, initial answers, critical…

Mathematical thinking is closely related to students' success in solving mathematical problems. Local culture can be a resource to teach mathematical thinking skills. Nonetheless, a lot of teachers still struggle to help students develop their mathematical thinking abilities. This study aims to investigate the ethnomathematics approach applied by…

Environmental literacy related to the utilization of medicinal plants in the community provides a foundation for the younger generation to take an active role and form an attitude of care and responsibility for environmental sustainability. The current research aims to introduce the Inquiry-Etnobotany (IEb) learning model to enhance students'…

Introduction: This study reviews the most commonly used Hungarian terminology of pedagogical folklorism terms, their interpretations and the conceptual debates around them, as well as the possible imprecisions related to them. With the help of Hungarian and international examples, it places the technical terms of the ethnography-folk…

The relevance of the subject of this article is determined by an incomplete coverage of a vast domain of ethnocultural knowledge in the existing programs of training of the future educators, which allows to comprehend the values, implication and meaning of the legacy of the past and its role in the development of an individual, society and…

Ethnology museums are pedagogical. As educators attempting to make sense of how museums teach about the world, the authors of this article are especially interested in how ethnology museums curate otherness through objects, texts, and spaces, and how these combine to present a narrative of others. Ellsworth has referred to this as the…

The article examines the challenges university teachers face when adopting connective pedagogy in organizing teaching. Instead of studying the learning outcomes of the method, we decided in this research to focus on the teachers' experiences when doing things differently in a fairly traditional pedagogical institution like a university. In spring…

I argue that until ethnomathematical frameworks are explicitly used to investigate the specific mathematical practices in networks of powerful elites the term will continue to index that which is Other to "traditional" mathematics and run a risk of desubstantialization. I suggest that the field ally itself with disciplines and perspectives in…

This article explores how it might be possible to engage in world music ethically. I examine ways that traditional engagements can be problematic in order to push towards new possibilities for encounters and engagement. I begin by considering my own experience with world music. Moving to the theoretical, I consider "world music" study…
