一种链接数学文化与学校数学的教学方法:民族建模

Ethno-modeling: A Teaching Method to Link Mathematical Culture and School Mathematics

民族建模为认识数学文化与学校数学教学提供了新视角,同时也为民族数学进入学校数学教学提供了重要途径与方法。以民族数学为载体,通过主位与客位两种研究方法,探讨民族建模的源起及其内涵,结合相关案例对民族建模的方法与过程进行评介。研究发现,民族建模不仅很好地融合了数学文化与学校数学,而且增强了学生对数学学习的兴趣,同时能让学生对数学和本土文化有一个更全面、科学的认识。

Ethno-modeling has provided a new perspective for the understanding of mathematical culture and school mathematics and an important way and method in integrate ethno-mathematics into school mathematics. Taking ethno-mathematics as the carrier and using emic and etic research methods, this paper discusses the origin and content of ethno-mathematics, and makes comments on the method and process of ethno-modeling based on related cases. The findings show that ethno-modeling can not only integrate mathematical culture and school mathematics, but can also raise students＇ interest in mathematics learning and meanwhile, it can enable students to have a more comprehensive and scientific understanding of mathematics and the local culture.
