- Abstract
The ability to understand mathematics is quite crucial in the process of learning mathematics in elementary schools. Ethnomatematics Problem-Based Learning is a strategy for learning mathematics that helps improve the ability to understand mathematics. The type of this research is Quasy Experiment with pretest-posttest control group design. The population of this study was all of class V at Nanggewer Elementary School which consisted of two classes, namely class Va as the experimental class and class Vb as the control class. Data collection uses multiple choice questions and essays, questionnaires, and performance appraisal. Data analysis used is the t test, data reliability test, data normality test, homogeneity test, and hypothesis testing. The results of the data analysis showed that the average N-gain ability of students’ mathematical understanding who received problem-based learning based on ethnomathematics was significantly higher than students who received conventional learning.
