7. The Seventh Reflection of Philosophy of Mathematics Education

Talking about dimension, the most primitive dimension are space and time. But, if we extend into large, there are many dimension such that dimension of policy, dimension of economy, etc. When it reach this time, it will be more easy to understand. But, it is the freedom of having philosophy. dimension of space and time, dimension of vertical and horizontal, suitable with Cartesian dimension. In one imension, two dimension or three dimension or dimension that called space dimension, time may be increasing time by time, but dimension of can not. dimension of space can be decreasing. dimension of social also like this. So people can not define the definition. Something that can not be define or it will look weird if it is tranlslated will be said to be intuition.

Then, talking about something, everythis in this world usefull or not. Something that usefull or not is depend on space and time. Is it steal usefull? It can be said yes and no. Steal of course is not good in spriritual and in norm of life. But this condition happened as warning. Warning for every people especially the object of steal. So it can be said that everything ij this world of course usefull. Usefull but have certain porposional. The other example is eating. Eating is usefull but too much eating is not useful.

In this lecturing, Mr. Marsigit said that, “Rebut kembali intuisi dan kembangkanlah pembelajaran yang mengoptimalkan kebenaran intuisi.” It means that intuition is so important to develop optimal learning based the truth of intuition. So, intuition in mathematical learning is like that. To optimalize it, intuition is very usefull in this case.

Definition can not be define. Hence the truth of intuition sciencely still wuestioned. It doesn’t need definition. Beautiful, handsome, good is intuition and don’t need definition. People can not define it formally. So, intuition can be sharpen by experience.

Talking about Intelligence Quotient (IQ), Spiritual Quotient (SQ), and Emotional Quotient (EQ), emotional and mind, something they are not sincron between mind and heart. Something it want to be angry without reason. It is the phenomena that logic defeated by heart. When it use heart, the role of logic and mind is become small.
