Abstract

The emphasize on character education in Indonesian national education policy includes the concern of ethical value. As part of the national education system, mathematics education should also have a concern on ethical values. However, many experts believe that mathematics is free value and has nothing to do with this value domain. As a response to this view, authors have done a study on integrating ethical values into mathematics instruction. By using a philosophical auto/ ethnographic methodology and employing narrative inquiry method, the study showed that it is possible to integrate ethics and mathematics instruction especially Pembelajaran Matematika Realistik Indonesia (PMRI). Considering the characteristics of PMRI, it is possible to integrate ethics through the realistic problem, open problem, interactivity, and reflection.
