Integrating mathematics into local culture is a way to enhance students' interest in local wisdom. The concept of mathematics is explored to find out the existence of mathematics in society's culture which has not been seen so far. The Mathematical concept is used to explore the existence of mathematics in terrace culture on the Panyaweuyan terrace of Majalengka city. This study to describe the result of exploratory project-based learning of the Panyaweuyan terrace with this kind of exploratory research. The exploring of the relationship between the terrace culture of panyaweuyan and concept mathematics, especially in the concept of arithmetic sequences is analyzed and described through literature studies, observation, and interviews with 4 informants who are local farmers. The results that there is a relationship between the arithmetic sequence concept with the local culture of Panyaweuyan Majalengka city. The results of the study stated that each mound on each step on the Panyeweuyan terraces was formed through an arithmetic sequence formula. Farmers in Panyaweuyan terraces are naturally able to make terraces according to the arithmetic sequence formula without knowing the basics of mathematics. Therefore, the concept of mathematics is part of local culture which has an important role in preserving the nation's culture.

ABSTRACTThe article seeks to demonstrate the relationship between project theory and design practice in the course of Architecture and Urbanism at the University Anhembi Morumbi - São Paulo - Brazil from the application of the Theory of Project-Based Learning (PBL) in order to understand the interrelationship between teaching, research and extension. As a case study we opted for an architectural and urban project, called Boulevard Immigration which is being developed by students and teachers in the Model Office of Architecture and Urbanism at the University Anhembi Morumbi in partnership with Immigration Museum in São Paulo. The importance of this theme is to promote a debate on the relationship between theory and practice in the development of education in Architecture and Urbanism courses, stimulating critical, creative, collaborative and reflective student formation. As investigative procedure method was chosen a bibliographic exploratory research on the Project-Based Learning as a teaching tool that encourages the development of reflection, collaboration and responsibility with social manners and democratic behavior. As final considerations it is clear that the application of PBL provides the students and teachers a set of tools that stimulates the relationship between theory and practice in teaching and learning.RESUMOO artigo visa demonstrar a relação entre teoria e prática projetual no curso de Arquitetura e Urbanismo da Uni-versidade Anhembi Morumbi- São Paulo- Brasil, a partir da aplicação da Teoria do Aprendizado Orientado ao Projeto (AOP) visando compreender a inter-relação entre ensino, pesquisa e extensão.

Purpose Prior research in ingredient branding (IB) has identified several important decision variables consumers use when evaluating IB alliances. This exploratory research aims to investigate the relationship between these variables and consumers’ buying likelihood of the IB alliance and the relative importance of these variables for low- vs high-involvement product categories. Design/methodology/approach A study with the participation of 458 mTurkers was conducted and the data were analyzed using random forests. Findings Findings reveal relative importance of different variables for an IB alliance and that these differ for low- vs high-involvement categories. Research limitations/implications Being exploratory in nature, this research has several limitations, such as using only one high- and one low-involvement categories. Practical implications Results of this research will help brand managers as they make decisions entering an IB alliance as well as with investing their budget on different aspects of their brand, and tailoring their marketing activities for low- vs high-involvement product categories. Originality/value To the best of authors’ knowledge, this paper is the first to discuss the relative importance of different decision variables in an IB context empirically.

ABSTRACT This is a quantitative, descriptive and exploratory research, with cross-sectional design that investigated the stressors experienced by nursing technicians working in general hospital and identified the coping strategies most used by them. The sample contained 310 participants. A sociodemographic questionnaire and the Ways of Coping Scale were used. For the analysis we used descriptive statistics and calculated the Cronbach's alpha. 60% of professionals used the strategies focused on the problem; 57.4% attributed their stress to working conditions, 26.8% to relationships in the workplace, 5.5% to the lack of reward at work and only 0.6% to problems personal. We conclude that strategies focused on the problems were the most used, indicating an approximation of the stressor in order to fix it. The identified stressors indicate the need for planning, stimulating and recognizing nursing professionals.

Methodological Triangulation

This article was made based on an observation on the application of a Local Culture-Based Project in Balinese Language and Religious Literature Study Program of Denpasar State Hindu Dharma Institute. The basic reason for the application of this Project-Based Learning method is that, students were less motivated in following the EFL course. Students found that English would give a very minimum support for Balinese language and culture. English as a foreign language seems to be a threat for Balinese language sustainability. Therefore, the writer would show the students their actual connection in which English as a world dominant language could empower the existence of local culture including the language itself. (Regmi, 2013) stated that people should consider that the present existed local language that is used to pass the local context and culture on from generation to generation will die. Therefore, its integration to English as a world dominant language is one of the effective ways to preserve the local culture. Writer then designed project task which deal with local Balinese Culture. Students were asked to make a „Multilingual Pictured Folklore Book‟ during EFL course. Methodological triangulation (e.g. survey, interview and observation) were applied to confirm the students‟ respond toward the application of the Project. The result shows that PBL approach implemented in the present study was proven effective in improving the students‟ interest in learning English. Besides, the students gave a positive response toward the application of the Project.

Culture Based Education

Culture-based education has a vital role of individuals and communities to achieve progressivity in all aspects of life. Math-based culture called ethnomathematics is an approach that can be used to explain the role of mathematics in a multicultural society. Mathematical concepts used to explore the existence of mathematics in culture, especially traditional societies of Lampung. This study aims to describe the results of exploration Lampung Ethnomathematics with this kind of exploratory research as well as an ethnographic approach. The results showed that without studying the mathematical concept, traditional society of Lampung have applied these concepts in their daily lives using ethnomathematics. Proved the existence of mathematical concepts contained in custom home building, the local unit of  Lampung, geometric shapes motif of tapis, as well as traditional games Lampung. Researchers suggest the results of this study to (a) used as alternative ideas mathematics learning outside the classroom, (b) introduced in learning formal mathematics as initial capital to teach the concept of mathematics to students, (c) be used as reference material for preparing a matter of mathematical problem-solving context.

Abstract. This paper attempts to explain the theoretical reasons why the local farmers took irrational activities such as steep slope land cultivations in order to reveal the mechanism of Karst Rocky Desertification (KRD) through those typical case studies. Firstly, this paper assumes that the low land capacity is the genesis cause of KRD in peak cluster-depression areas. Furthermore, the ecological quality of the peak cluster-depression zone is influenced by the relationship between the area of depressions and the population of residential areas. The results show that, six typical peak cluster-depression areas in Guizhou Province were selected to compare the distribution circumstances of croplands, the characteristics of settlements and the formation of KRD. Also, the results show that there is a negative correlation between the percentage of the cultivated land and the percentage of KRD (including light KRD, moderate KRD and severe KRD at peak cluster-depressions. The relationship could be concluded as three situations of the process of KRD, which are low, middle and upper carrying capacity of land. The severe KRD is only distributed in peak-cluster depression areas with less flatland, low land capacity and high population. The harmonization between population pressure and bearing capacity of land will influence the ecological qualities in the peak cluster depressions. Therefore, the hypothesis suggested by this paper is correct, and this result will contribute to understanding the natural mechanism of KRD and guide the ecological restoration of KRD land.
