Autor/Autorin: Sokolowski Andrzej
Andrzej Sokolowski has earned a Master´s degree in physics from Gdansk University, and a Ph.D. in curriculum and instruction with an emphasis on mathematics education from Texas A&M University. He is an author of numerous research papers on inducing science concepts to support mathematical modelling at the high school and college levels.
In the growing trend of using mathematics, science, and technology in everyday life, mathematical modelling has become a leading learning and teaching method. Over the years, the deillegalscriptions of mathematical modeling have undergone many modifications, ranging from deductively situated authentic problem modeling activities seeking unique solutions to inductively organized inquiries leading students to find general patterns and express the patterns using the tools of mathematics. Since problem solving includes scientific contexts, the question that emerged was if the methods of scientific inquiry, mathematical modelling, and problem solving can be merged to generate coherent problem solving strategies that students could use in mathematics and in other subjects. The synthesis of qualitative research on mathematical modelling presented in this book attempts to answer this question.

In the growing trend of using mathematics, science, and technology in everyday life, mathematical modelling has become a leading learning and teaching method. Over the years, the deillegalscriptions of mathematical modeling have undergone many modifications, ranging from deductively situated authentic problem modeling activities seeking unique solutions to inductively organized inquiries leading students to find general patterns and express the patterns using the tools of mathematics. Since problem solving includes scientific contexts, the question that emerged was if the methods of scientific inquiry, mathematical modelling, and problem solving can be merged to generate coherent problem solving strategies that students could use in mathematics and in other subjects. The synthesis of qualitative research on mathematical modelling presented in this book attempts to answer this question.
