Mathematical Modelling as a Professional Activity – Lessons for the Classroom
Linköping University, Department of Mathematics, Mathematics and Applied Mathematics. Linköping University, Faculty of Educational Sciences.
2017 (English)In: Mathematical Modelling and Applications: Crossing and Researching Boundaries in Mathematics Education / [ed] Gloria Ann StillmanWerner BlumGabriele Kaiser, Cham: Springer, 2017, p. 371-388Chapter in book (Refereed)
Abstract [en]

This chapter presents a discussion about similarities and differences between working with mathematical modelling in ‘school’ and mathematical modelling as a ‘professional task’ in the workplace based on empirical and theoretical research studies. Issues discussed concern goals; technology; division of labour, communication and collaboration; model construction, including the application and adaption of pre-defined models; projects; and risks involved in using the models. Based on this discussion and examples from innovative teaching practices, approaches to simulate modelling as a ‘professional activity’ in educational settings are explored and exemplified with a role play activity.
