As a prolog, I'm going to tell you a short story. It based on my boarding house friend's story. She has back from America (Student Exchange Program), and one of her gift brought back from America is story about American habits. Most of American's opinion that religion is privacy, it can be sensitive things if it's talked in public situation. It's contrary with Indonesian, whom Indonesian always "let loose (mengumbar-umbar)" about truth of each their own religion without pay attention to other adherent's feeling.
Even, there are some people's opinion that "Don't mixed up between religious affair and science, because science is not related with religion, and those terms is different each other. I think, that assumption is exactly wrong. Do you know ? without religion, science development will be uncontrolled. Scientist will be competed to invent or create new formula (new technology) and eventually not appropriate with religious theory. For example like HUMAN CLONING, I think, HUMAN CLONING in each religion doesn't allow. It make clear that development of science or technology which is not followed with religious value is not meaningfull. That's in Biology Science. In Economic, we have problem like corruption, because of sophisticated technology in computation numbers made person fall asleep with money and caused deviation behaviour.
So…………what connection between this above mentioned case with uncover religious value in students mathematics learning ?
Of course, it has connection. In students mathematics learning, religious value can be motivation factor, inspiration, and getting ideas for solve mathematics problem.
My Senior High School Mathematics Teacher was given a suggestion to us that pray (Sholat) especially in "Sujud Move" makes blood circulation fast down to the brain so that made think easier and think fast. My teacher also tell us story about experiment " How a elementary school student in SD Muhamadiyah Sapen Yogyakarta got a gold medal in World Mathematic Olympic". Eventually, there is a Professor from America who research why Indonesian can be so bright in Mathematics, and the result was found a miracle in Sholat, and wonderfully, that student do "Sholat Dhuha" everyday without stopping, How come it's got ?, It's proved that blood circulation fast down to the brain so that made think easier and think fast, of course to solve mathematic problems.
From many stories above, we're expected to all Mathematics Teacher in Indonesia to apply education with religious principle so that form young generations is not just intelectual but behaviouristik, faithy, and religious.
