Description
Summary:Indonesia, rich in culture, is the right source for developing studies on ethnomathematics to eliminate the assumption that mathematics is difficult to learn. This research aims to explore forms of ethnomathematics through e-comics developed based on the merdeka curriculum. This research is qualitative, using qualitative descriptive methods. Data collection techniques through interviews, observation, and documentation. Data analysis techniques through source triangulation. The results of this study were forms of ethnomathematics found in e-comic, namely the Lawang sewu building, Batik Semarang, and warak ngendog, which were integrated to teach mathematics about flat figures for phase B students. In addition, E-comic can also be used to introduce students to Semarang culture through mathematics so that students are interested in studying mathematics and can strengthen students’ numeracy literacy.
