Ethnomathematics-based learning using oil palm cultivation context

Agriculture is a culture that has been embedded in Indonesian society. Along with the changing times, then this culture began to be abandoned and tend not to be known by the current generation. Ethnomathematics exists to bridge the gap between culture and education. The purpose of this study was to find out the mathematical ideas on oil palm cultivation and determine students' responses in Ethnomathematics-based learning. This research uses descriptive qualitative. In this study, an assessment of the knowledge, ideas, or findings contained in the literature was carried out to provide theoretical information and interviews to oil palm companies and smallholders related to oil palm cultivation and implemented in mathematics learning. The application of agricultural activities in mathematics learning is expected to introduce and preserve agricultural culture to students and learning becomes more fun and meaningful.
