INVESTIGASI ETNOMATEMATIKA PADA TRADISI TABUT BENGKULU [AN ETHNOMATHEMATICS INVESTIGATION OF THE TABUT TRADITION IN BENGKULU]

Resumo

Mathematics was developed from human activities and culture to answer life's problems. However, there are still many people who see mathematics as far from everyday life. Mathematics teaching needs to be linked to everyday life. This research aims to present fundamental mathematical activities in the tradition of Tabut Bengkulu. This research is qualitative research with an ethnographic approach. The subject of this research is Keluarga Kerukunan Tabut Bencoolen, selected using a purposive sampling technique, followed by snowball sampling. The object of this research is fundamental mathematical activities in the Tabut Bengkulu tradition. Research data was obtained by literature study related to the ethnomathematics of the Tabut Bengkulu tradition, interviews with research subjects, as well as observation and documentation on a series of Tabut rituals. Data analysis was carried out using the stages of data reduction, categorization, synthesis and drawing conclusions. The results show that there are fundamental mathematical activities in the Tabut Bengkulu tradition. Fundamental mathematical activities consist of: counting and number operations; locating the position of the Dol, the placement of the radius and the ritual location of the Tabut; measuring is found in the process of making the Tabut and Dol and when pick up the soil; designing is found in the geometric aspects of the Tabut and Dol, arranging the bottom and top of the Tabut, and making the Dol; playing is based on the Dol rhythm rules when the ritual takes place; explanations include the meaning of the Tabut, the ritual philosophy of the Tabut, and explanations about Dol. The results of this research can be designed as an approach to the mathematics learning process. BAHASA INDONESIA ABSTRACT: Matematika dikembangkan dari aktivitas dan budaya manusia untuk menjawab persoalan kehidupan. Akan tetapi, masih banyak orang yang memandang matematika jauh dari kehidupan sehari-hari. Pengajaran matematika perlu dikaitkan dengan kehidupan sehari-hari. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menyajikan aktivitas fundamental matematis pada tradisi Tabut Bengkulu. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian kualitatif dengan pendekatan etnografi. Subjek penelitian ini adalah Keluarga Kerukunan Tabut Bencoolen yang dipilih dengan teknik purposive sampling, dilanjutkan dengan snowball sampling. Objek penelitian ini adalah aktivitas fundamental matematis pada tradisi Tabut Bengkulu. Data penelitian diperoleh dengan studi pustaka berkaitan dengan etnomatematika tradisi Tabut Bengkulu, wawancara dengan subjek penelitian, serta observasi dan dokumentasi pada serangkaian ritual Tabut. Analisis data dilakukan dengan tahapan reduksi data, kategorisasi, sintesis, dan penarikan kesimpulan. Hasil menunjukan terdapat aktivitas fundamental matematis pada tradisi Tabut Bengkulu. Aktivitas fundamental matematis terdiri dari: counting yaitu membilang atau mencacah, dan operasi bilangan; locating pada posisi peletakan Dol, peletakan jari-jari, dan lokasi ritual Tabut; measuring terdapat pada proses pembuatan Tabut dan Dol serta pada saat mengambil tanah; designing terdapat pada aspek geometri pada Tabut dan Dol, menata bagian bawah dan puncak Tabut, dan pembuatan Dol; playing terdapat pada aturan irama Dol saat ritual berlangsung; explaining terdapat pada makna Tabut, filosofi ritual Tabut, dan penjelasan tentang Dol. Hasil penelitian ini dapat didesain menjadi pendekatan dalam proses pembelajaran matematika.
